omen who have expe- rienced hot flashes and other menopausal symptoms may have as much as a 50 percent lower risk of develop- ing the most common forms of breast cancer than postmeno- pausal women who have never had such symptoms, accord- ing to a new study by the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.

gist Dr. Stefan Gluck, of the University of Miami’s Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, observes that the reduction in risk evidently linked to a natural decrease in estrogen is substantial. “At age 50, a woman has on average, a 2 percent risk of getting breast cancer; so if she experiences menopausal symptoms, the risk is suddenly only 1 percent,” he says.
