Does Taking Beta Estradiol Along With Prometrium Reduce The Risk Of Breast Cancer?

I am considering taking hormones. I am a 55 year old woman. But I have a family history of breast cancer. I attended a seminar where it was mentioned that taking 17 beta estradiol along with Prometrium in combination can reduce the possibility of getting breast cancer. Is this true? I had a hysterectomy. Would that change the recommendation for me?
