Why HRT could be linked to ovarian cancer

Professor John Toy, Cancer Research UK, on cancer of the ovaries

'Considering [the risk of ovarian cancer] alongside the increase in risk for breast and endometrial cancer, women should think very carefully about whether to take hormone replacement therapy (HRT). And women who choose HRT should aim to do so for clear medical need and for the shortest possible time.'
Professor John Toy, medical director, Cancer Research UK
