Incidence of malignancy in hormone therapy users with indeterminate calcifications on mammogram

Article Abstract:

A pilot study is carried out to determine whether menopausal hormone therapy users have a higher incidence of indeterminate calcifications on screening mammogram and a higher rate of associated malignancy than nonusers. It is found that the hormone therapy users with indeterminate calcifications on screening mammograms are not at an increased risk of malignancy than nonusers but estrogen-progestin users can be at an increased risk over estrogen-only users.
