Can taking Premarin by itself cause endometrial cancer and a mass in the uterus?!
Question: My girlfriend took Premarin for hot flashes and night sweats for about 7 years. Now she has a "mass" in her uterus and the endometrial lining is 4.5 times as thick as it should be in a post menopausal 57 yr old woman.
She has to go for a D&C next week because her uterus was closed and the doctor was unable to do a biopsy on her w/o her being in excrutiating pain. He was VERY concerned and wanted to refer her to an oncologist for this procedure (but the oncologist is booked over a month away, so the ob/gyn will be doing this procedure.)
I know doctors don't like to say anything until it's confirmed, but do you think that the reason he wanted to refer her to an gyn-oncologist that he suspects that she has cancer? Or just as a precautionary measure?
