Re: Progesterone Positive, Estrogen Negative
So Cal Girl
I had a frustrating time trying to get any info from the internet per say about treating ER-PR+ breast cancer. I went to PUB MED
and put treatment of progesterone positive breast cancer in the search engine. There was one abstract that had one sentence.
The sentence stated " ER-PR+ breast cancer responds better to hormonal therapy then ER+PR- breast cancer. I guessed they meant anti-estrogen therapy be it Tamoxifen, Arimadex, or Faslodex. Before reading this I assumed ER-PR+ would not respond to anti-hormonal therapy with anti-estrogen. That is logical but apparently not the case.
