Oh wow, I get to be the well akshually woman! Thanks lads!
Sure, but over 99% of breast cancer cases are in women, so I stand by BuboCare’s description of it as a woman’s medical issue. BuboCare cares.
I agree on at least inquiring about family history before prescribing E to a man. But a troon will hand wave away the risks, because breast cancer would be much affirming.
But it’s not just the money incentive in over-treatment of DCIS. The key word in your post is may. The doctor can’t confidently predict the future course of the DCIS. They can suggest medical treatment or active monitoring. There are risks in both.

I hate to be an "ackschualy"-guy, but breast cancer in men often goes undiagnosed until it's too late. And checking if one is genetically predisposed for it should be mandatory for middle aged men before taking estrogen, since that might be straight up asking for it. But nothing says "real woman" like pooner-scars, so very affirming at least.

The necessity of preemptive breast cancer screening, though, is something that itself should be taken with caution. There's a lot of money to be extracted in chemo & surgery and people may opt for either in situations where they may have just had a tumor that would have proved benign in the long term.
