Résumé

New evidence on the association between use of menopausal hormone therapy and increased risk of cutaneous melanoma (CM) is emerging. In the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health, we followed 18,850 postmenopausal women for a median of 13.2 years, and observed 356 incident CMs. We found an indication of an association between use of unopposed oestrogen therapy and CM risk (hazard ratio (HR) 1.26; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.98, 1.61), and no association between use of oestrogen-progestin therapy and CM risk (HR 0.99; 95% CI 0.37, 2.67). More studies are needed to elucidate the potential impact of different types of hormone therapy on CM risk.
