Menopausal hormone therapy and risks of melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers: women's health initiative randomized trials.
J Natl Cancer Inst. 2011; (19): 1469-75
Case-control studies have reported that exogenous estrogen use is associated with increased risk of skin cancer. The effects of menopausal hormone therapy on incidence of nonmelanoma skin cancer and melanoma were evaluated in post hoc analyses of the Women's Health Initiative randomized placebo-controlled hormone therapy trials of combined estrogen plus progestin (E + P) and estrogen only (E-alone).
