The WHI enrolled a cohort of mostly healthy, ethnically diverse women, spanning a large age range (50–79 years at baseline). It is noteworthy that the increased risks for cardiovascular disease and invasive breast cancer were present across racial/ethnic and age strata and were not influenced by the antecedent risk status or prior disease. Hence, the results are likely to be gene-rally applicable to healthy women in this age range.
