Premature menopause may increases lung cancer risk

early menopause, smoking, lung cancerAlthough smoking cigarettes is the major cause of lung cancer, several factors can increase the risk of developing this disease. A new study has found that early artificial menopause may increase a woman’s risks of getting lung cancer.

The study suggests that medically induced menopause, especially through removal of both ovaries, can double younger women’s chances of developing lung cancer. It’s possible that female hormones may have a role to play in worsening the effects of cancer-causing agents in tobacco. Already,it has been found that women who smoke have lower estrogen levels.

Don't miss:


There is already evidence that smoking is more dangerous for women. It is possible that a sudden drop in estrogen levels or prolonged use of hormone replacement therapy may make women more susceptible to lung cancer.

All this research can be summed up in two sentences. If you smoke, stop. If you don’t smoke, don’t start!

    That seems like an amazing connection.

    I doubt that the connection really exists though, I mean early menopause increasing the risk of lung cancer? I don’t see it.

    It seems that as time goes by, the more things we connect to cancer risks. Early menopause is probably not one of the major ones. I think that much is coincidence here. I appreciate the thought though, interesting theory, but only a theory.

    There’s nothing amazing about it. Hormones affect every cell in the body. Hormone deficiency can cause innumerable health problems.
