Discussing breast cancer and hormone replacement therapy with women.

Cleveland Clinic journal of medicine - 1 Nov 2002

Batur Pelin, Thacker Holly L, Moore Halle C F

Abstract excerpt

We discuss limitations of the study, questions that remain, and how to discuss the study with women at average risk and high risk for breast cancer.
