To stop the hormones
Hi Everyone
I am now 6 weeks out of treatment (surgery, chemo and rads, hormone positive). I am interested to know of anyone who had their ovaries removed or chose zoladex as the oestrogen supress...
I asked my surgeon the same thing - she said removing the ovaries won't necessary stop the oestrogen as the body produces it from elsewhere (after menopause). I think I would have preferred to just have the op and know where I am at. I am 43, find out this week what stage of "life" I am at to determine what medication I have to take for the suppressent. Interesting all the different opinions the medical world have for the same treatment!!
