When it comes to hormone treatments after cancer, too many women are told no with no discussion, no explanation and no opportunity to weigh up the benefits and risks for themselves. Yet there are always options and many women do take hormone treatments - testosterone, progesterone and / or estradiol - after having cancer, including breast cancer.
This week on my @drlouisenewsonpodcast, I’m joined by nurse, educator and @balancehormonehealth US expert, @jill.chmielewski ****to explore why the conversation around hormones after cancer needs to change.
Together, we talk about the misconceptions in this area, why understanding the science behind hormone treatments is so important and how women can feel empowered to ask questions, seek evidence and make informed decisions about their own health.
Whether you’ve had cancer yourself, care for someone who has, or simply want to better understand the role hormones play throughout our lives, this is an episode not to miss.
