If there was a Dr. Oz show and he said there is something that reduces your risk of dying from breast cancer, if you do get it, by 44%… you would want to get yourself some.
Turns out… this is… estrogen.
This information comes from reanalyses of the Women’s Health Initiative randomized clinical trials.
Dr. Andrea Z. LaCroix published in 2011 the data on the 11-year follow-up of the Women’s Health Initiative (WHI), estrogen-only, second-arm.
Rather than causing increased breast cancer, the estrogen-only arm of the WHI study found a 23% reduction in breast cancer in healthy women using estrogen-alone (CEE) (after hysterectomy).
In 2018, Dr. Howard Hodis reviewed the 18-year follow-up of this same WHI estrogen-alone, second arm (2004) showing that if a woman had been on estrogen replacement for an average of 5 years, and she went on to get breast cancer, she now has a 44% percent reduction in risk of dying from this disease (fatality incidence).
Nothing has ever been so breast protective!
We will be diving into the many faces and ways estrogen is breast protective over the next few months.
Even for some high-risk women like ER+ breast cancer patients.
This, and more information, questions the standard of care, the sanity, science and statistical support of anti-estrogen drugs for most all ER+ breast cancer patients.
We need to see where the science turned us away from estrogen.
As loss of estrogen puts any woman at so many other health issue risks.
We need to see what research suggests about estrogen replacement and ER+ breast cancer patients.
Knowledge is power.
It’s challenging to grasp how few physicians know the real research behind hormonal therapies and hormonal physiological consequences.
Especially on breast tissue.
Stay tuned.

“It’s challenging to grasp how few physicians know the real research behind hormonal therapies and hormonal physiological consequences.” It is such a shame and so tragic! Recent news story tells of a young woman in her 30’s who just had a baby is diagnosed with stage 0 breast cancer and is going through with full mastectomy!! Incredible and so barbaric!!
