- Objective. To examine the effects of exposure to endogenous and exogenous hormones on estrogen receptor- (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) levels in normal human breast tissue. Methods. In a randomized study of women scheduled for mammary reduction plasty (n = 81), ER and PR content in breast parenchyma was analyzed in premenopausal (n = 49) and postmenopausal (n = 16) women. Premenopausal women were randomized to surgery in the follicular or luteal phase of the menstrual cycle or after oral contraceptive treatment for 2 months. Postmenopausal women were randomized to sequential or estrogen-only therapy for 2 months prior to surgery. Results. ER content was higher in parous than in nulliparous (p = 0.009) premenopausal women and displayed a positive association with age (rs = 0.51, p = 0.0002). Compared with premenopausal women in the follicular phase, postmenopausal women had higher ER content (p = 0.040) whereas premenopausal women on oral contraception had lower ER (p = 0.048) and PR (p = 0.007) content. Smokers had lower PR content than non-smokers (p = 0.02). Conclusion. In the present study ER content was higher in parous than in non-parous women and associated with premenopausal age. Short-term oral contraceptives yielded lower ER and PR contents. Postmenopausal estrogen/progestogen combined therapy yielded lower PR content than estrogen-only therapy.
