I am posting this for a friend, as I have only just started on HRT. She had been on combined, low doseHRT for 3 years since the age of 47, but has concerns about the risks of being on it after the age of 50. I think I read that HRT before 50 does not increase your risk at all of Breast Cancer but after the age of 50 there is a slightly greater risk, and that you should only be on the combined for a max of 5 years.
There are is so many different articles and research on this if is difficult to really know what's best. Am I correct ?
