estrogen and respond to standart treatment

Hi everyone

As my cancer is estrogen triple positive(ER+++) I was looking on internet to find out more about it.

I saw interisting information about using low-dose estrogen therapy (cheap tbs daily) to controll metastatic cancer and improve quality of life.
That is about cases which don't respond to standart treatment. Also said that respond will be back after estrogen therapy.

If anyone heard something about it please share.

It's really important for me as I still don't know if I'll have my next promised treatment(lapatinib).I may not be eligible.

Sending you, amazing women, my love

Galina
