Animal Research Suggests That Stress May Increase Risk Of Uterine Cancer

Research in monkeys suggests the possibility that stress may increase risk for the most common type of uterine cancer, according to a report from Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center. The study results also suggest that two drinks a day won't increase breast or endometrial cancer risk for postmenopausal women who don't take estrogen. The results are reported in the current issue of Menopause, the journal of the North American Menopause Society.
