Is it true hormone blockers can cause ovarian cancer?

Is it true hormone blockers can cause ovarian cancer ? Does anyone know anything about ovarian cancer after breast cancer 
  • Not that I've heard and I have a family history.
    HRT is not recommended for those at high risk.
    The contraceptive pill taken at least 2 years results in reduction of ovarian cancer risks.
  • Please do not be alarmed
    so much info is reported  and more understanding is required

    What is known is that a  type of  breast cancer and Ovarian cancer have genes in common 

    Please consult your oncologist to discuss thus
    All the best
     bright in hope
