I sacrificed my right breast on the altar of Premarin in 1994. The doctors at that time ADMITTED that my history of 10 years on Enovid birth control, coupled with the use of Premarin, would be the obvious cause of the cancer. Yet, they still continue to prescribe what has to be the most heavily prescribed medication in the world.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Hope you are doing okay now.

Isn't that amazing, and the doctor in the study said the same, they know all these hormones cause cancer but still encourage women to take them for the 'benefit of their health'. Incredible. To me, the other benefits can be obtained via a heart healthy lifestyle and mineral supplements without the cancer risk.

P.S. I bet that Premarin was discontinued mighty fast once you were diagnosed.

My wife had a mastectomy, same side, at 31 years old. I will ask her tomorrow about the pills.
