I take estrogen because it prevents the weakening of bones from Osteoporosis. I'm 62 and the bone scan I had done this year showed my bones to be virtually perfect. Both my mother and grandmother died earlier then they needed to after falling an breaking their hips and I certainly don't want to join that club.
The percentage of death after a hip fracture is astronomically high so I'll take my chances with (maybe) developing breast cancer over (certainly) developing Osteoporosis.
