Henry, I have not seen the abstract. The issue of risk using Tamoxifen seems slightly up in the air to me due to conflicting studies. Another one at ASCO might help clear things.

The effect of tamoxifen on the risk and prognosis of endometrial cancer following breast cancer: a study with 309 cases.

Did you see the med correspondent for Today this am? I guess he was talking raloxifene. At the end he mentioned looking if they can use it in combo for bcancer prevention per my wife. She said he just mentioned the class of drugs, but couldn't recall. She thought it started w/ an A when asked. Agonists, she wasn't sure. The doctor said POTENTIALLY could lower breast cancer rates to those men. [EDIT: I feel like I should start including Save Harbor statements in posts like this.]
