Hormone pills may make lung cancer more deadly

[TamTam]

ORLANDO, Fla. – There's more troubling news about hormone therapy for menopause symptoms: Lung cancer seems more likely to prove fatal in women who are taking estrogen-progestin pills, a study suggests.
Hormone users who developed lung cancer were more than twice as likely to die from the disease as women who weren't taking hormones, according to results reported Saturday.

I always thought that the hormones used for menopause symptoms are basically the same as those for HRT.  Is that true?  In that case this might be something to be aware of.
