Natural Cure for Breast Cancer

I have read articles on hormone threrapy and find myself being very nieve about this treatment. My doctors have left me with so many open questions I am not sure what to do. So my real question is " what do you feel about hormone therapy or is there a natural remedy to equal the hormone drug therapy.

Hi, I'm sorry that you are going through this as I know personally how difficult it can be. I am approaching my 4th year of Tamoxifen therapy and am very grateful to have this option for treatment (I am 4 years in remission so it appears that the Tamoxifen is working for me!) The side effects are pretty tolerable and it's in a daily pill form which is easy to manage. Depending on your age, you may be considering Arimidex which I have also heard positive things about. I know how hard it is to make these kind of decisions and my heart goes out to you. I personally make my choices based on what I can live with long term. For example, will hormone therapy give you peace of mind long term or will the potential side effects be a bigger issue for you? Your Dr. likely explained to you the positive results of hormone therapy in reducing a recurrence. That is a very important factor to consider when making your decision. There are many women who do not have hormone sensitive cancer and so the opportunity to use this therapy should not be taken lightly. I know a lot of women who have had breast cancer in all different stages and my best advice to you is to do everything you can to protect your health and your life. It is a precious gift. Good luck and god bless!!

Hormone Replacement Therapy. I have been on quite a few years now (about 8) and am 51. But still the hot flashes are awful if I go off the HRT. I have been told by my Dr. that any "natural" remedies will do the same harm. I am on the lowest dose possible already. Thanks for any info.

i would say to search that in goolge.com

Price: $15.00

My teenage daughter has just been diagnosed with it. I don't want to put her on hormone replacement therapy to bring on her periods (which occur about twice per year). We have extensive breast cancer in the family, and hormone therapy is frightening. Does anyone know of any natural remedies that are safe? Thank you.

The symptoms appear suddenly; flushed face and other Belladonna symptoms are present. Platinum.

last yr the lump on her left breast is now on the outside.About the size of a quarter to a half dollar.The last time they leaked out was august.Now her breast look like socks.She never been to the Dr.and refuses to go.Are there any Natural cure remedies she can take.her legs is weak,she stays cold and my Dr.told me it is the last stage of cancer.

I've never heard of breast cancer "leaking out." If she's NEVER been to the dr and this has been going on for 8 years, it may be a severe infection of some sort, but I can't imagine brst cancer allowing her to live that long. If brst cancer goes untreated, it will metastisize to other areas of her body, including her brain. She can't walk and she's weak? Pick her up and put her in your car or call an ambulance to take her to the hospital.


Your last question about this was a year ago, so that would make an oozing sore lasting 4 years. You said she's never been to dr, but dr said it was last stages of cancer...Makes no sense.
