what is the current thinking on ooph for ER+
just wondering for those of you who are ER+ what your oncs are saying about a ooph (ovary removal). I am on the fence on whether or not to do this. Onc says as long as I am not having periods (i am premenopausal) then i am in menopause and an ooph is not necessary. I have not had a period since my 2nd chemo. My gyn says that whether you remove your ovaries or shut them down chemically the side effects are the same so if i feel better just having them out then she would remove them
what is the current thinking from your oncs on this? i know it changes from time to time due to new reports/studies coming out
