Zusammenfassung

Das Mammakarzinom sowie das Endometriumkarzinom und das Ovarialkarzinom sind hormonabhängige Malignome. Östrogene und Gestagene können proliferativ auf das Tumorwachstum wirken. Die Hormontherapie (HT) in der Peri- und Postmenopause kann das Risiko für hormonabhängige Malignomerkrankungen erhöhen oder verringern. Dargestellt wird der Einfluss einer HT auf das Risiko für Mamma-, Endometrium-, Ovarial-, Zervix- und Kolorektalkarzinome.

Abstract

Breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancers are endocrine-dependent. Estrogens and progestogens can have a proliferative effect on tumor growth. Hormone therapy during and after menopause can raise or lower the risk of a malignoma. This article explains its influence on the risk of mammary, endometrial, ovarian, cervical, and colorectal cancers.
