Balance of Invisible Influences on the Body
This is where I think we need more coordinated research on the endocrine system as a whole in applying knowledge about it to breast cancer. We already know there are feedback loops involved in keeping a healthy balance in the endocrine system. But when it comes to breast cancer, diagnosis and treatment is divided up among specialists who don't have a lot of knowledge or experience with endocrinology, and who are focused on their own area of expertise. At best they might offer something like the Estring or Vagifem and gobs of goop, and then they feel they have done their best and they move on. Without any input from someone with an educated and disciplined bodywide focus on endocrine balance, treatment for bc will remain primitive.
