Hormone Replacement Therapy After Breast Cancer: It's Time.

Worked with a lovely, proactive, very smart breast cancer patient.

They were diagnosed with ductal breast cancer 4 years ago in their late 30’s.

Put on Tamoxifen, on top of that anti-estrogen Zoladex injections, and 10 months of chemo.

Under 45 years of age.

The Mayo Clinic clearly demonstrated in a landmark study that having nil estrogen in a female’s blood stream occurring before 45 years of age statistically increases a woman’s risk of a first time fatal heart attack.

Meaning the first symptom is sudden death. Out of no where.

Young adult hearts need estrogen.

Does estrogen really drive breast cancer? Even ER+ breast cancer?
