Mirena IUD and hormone +Ve breast cancer
Hi everyone. Just wanted to know if there were any similar cases to mine. I had a mammogram and ultrasound for an unrelated issue in 2012, both tests being clear. I was diagnosed with ductal ectasia (...
I had a Mirena inserted for 7 years. It was great as previous to insertion my periods were unbearably heavy. After I had the Mirena I enjoyed what I considered to be 'normal' periods. I am HER2 positive, EO and PR negative so my BC wasn't down to the Mirena. It's hard not knowing for sure what caused my cancer. I don't dwell on likely causes as I will never really know.
