Hmm. I used to drink 20 cups of coffee a day from my early 20's till my late 30's. And I had hormone treatment to stop my growth at age 14 - 16. My cancer showed up at 44. That would be the 30 year timespan. Interesting. Thank you for posting.

I have been thinking that there could be a link to that hormone treatment. And perhaps I was more susceptible to it genetically. My father had prostate cancer.

hmmmmm...started drinking coffee in my late teens..had HRT for 10 years 1995-2005 when I was dx'd with breast cancer. I love my coffee!!!

Awww, crap. Next they'll be telling us sex causes BC! Heck, can't drink alcohol, can't eat fats, can't drink coffee....maybe this is the new health care kicking in. We'll be so miserable, we'll just kill ourselves. Then there will be a study about how BC makes patients so depressed they kill themselves.....s&%t!

OMG Laurel, I just about spit my COFFEE on the screen. I will not give up my coffee. I will not. LOL I drink about 5 cups a day, 3 in the morning and 2 in the evening.

AWWW Crap I might as will go ahead and head to the top of the hill and just eat worms.

[Rich66]

Worms are A-ok. Good lean source of protein. Keep some compazine on hand.

LOL Laurel...

You know, we've been hearing about coffee being protective in regards to liver cancer, etc... so I had gone back to my one cup (about 3 times a week) ~ but now I have to consider the estrogen component. Crap on a crapstick.

[Rich66]

Crap on a crapstick is fine too. Hard to find outside of State Fairs, though.

Oh! Now that is funny, Rich!!!!! Feelin' so frisky I think I'll live on the edge and have a cuppa joe!
