title: [Level of steroid and tropic pituitary hormones in the blood of patients with breast cancer treated with tamoxifen].
abstract: A radioimmunologic assay of steroid and tropic hormones levels in blood serum was carried out in 30 breast cancer patients receiving tamoxifen. Long-term treatment with tamoxifen was followed by a significant decrease in blood-estradiol, progesterone, testosterone and prolactin levels whereas FSH, LH and hydrocortisone concentrations remained virtually unchanged.
