Re: estrogen and respond to standart treatment
Hi and thanks for the replys.
Jackie, sorry, may be it's my foult - I didn't make it clear. I was talking about ESTROGEN thearapy - using low-dose estrogen to stop BC progression, not ANTI-ESTROGEN thearapy.
Tricia found right links for me as I been reading similar article which called "Low-dose estrogen thearapy stops breast cancer progression"20Aug2009.
Sorry, I'm new with PC so cannot give the link. Hope to learn.
I'd like to try that treatment, not sure it will be possible with my onc. For now not having any treatment as all previous not working any more.
Thanks Tricia again
Galina
