Alcohol Consumption and Urinary Estrogens and Estrogen Metabolites in Premenopausal Women

In a cross-sectional analysis, we evaluated the associations of usual total alcohol and wine intake with a comprehensive profile of mid-luteal phase urinary estrogens and estrogen metabolites (referred to join...

The Relationship Between Bilateral Oophorectomy and Plasma Hormone Levels in Postmenopausal Women

Oophorectomy prior to natural menopause reduces breast cancer risk. We evaluated whether timing of oophorectomy (during premenopause vs. postmenopause) or hysterectomy was associated with hormone levels, speci...
