PREMPRO

Prempro is the most popular estrogen-progestin combination. In one year, for every 10,000 women who take the estrogen-progestin combination there will be eight more breast cancers, eight more strokes and seven more heart attacks compared with 10,000 women who didn't take the pills. Because millions take the hormones, those numbers can add up to thousands of illnesses.
