Figure 1 Percentage of breast cancer survivors (n = 1, 098) reporting hot flashes, night sweats, and vaginal discharge according to type of adjuvant therapy (Rx), assessed about 3 years after diagnosis. All statistical comparisons were adjusted for age and time since diagnosis, and all tests were done using likelihood ratio χ2 tests based on logistic regressions with and without treatment indicators. Frequencies presented are unadjusted for age and time since diagnosis. *For all values, P <0.0001. Chem = chemotherapy; Tam = tamoxifen.
