Background: Postmenopausal women with elevated estrogens are at an increased risk of breast cancer, but an association of estrogens with breast cancer in premenopausal women has not been clearly established. Objective/ Hypothesis: We will evaluate the feasibility of a case-control study that uses gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist stimulation tests to compare pituitary-ovarian function in premenopausal women with breast cancer with unaffected controls.
