Have you asked your oncologist if your eligable for genetic testing, as that may help you asses her risk, well one part of the picture. or the local familial cancer centre or check out inherited cancer Australia for advice on genetic testing for your self, and maybe for her in the future.
Also talk to your oncologist about contraceptives to get up to date information.

Hi kimhangodi - while we wait for others to contribute to the conversation and while we cannot provide medical advice, we hope you find this information from the Cancer Council helpful Combined oral contraceptives and cancer risk . It also includes information on new options available in Australia in recent years
