Prempro Premarin
and Breast Cancer
Recent studies report that hormones caused a significant
increase in breast cancer, heart disease and blood clots in a combination
pill called Prempro (Premarin plus Provera).
After only 5 years of a recent clinical trial, the NIH
called a halt to the Prempro group. The women taking Prempro had 41%
increase in strokes, 29% increase in heart attacks, 26% increase in
breast cancer, and 100% increase in blood clots compared to placebo.
They concluded that no woman should start or continue taking Prempro
for reducing heart disease or preventing colorectal cancer.
