The anticipation is here. We discuss the dreading topic of endocrine therapy to help slow and stop cancer cell growth for the next 5-10 years. From early menopause w/ovarian suppression (which can be reversible) to the not-so-great side effects, we talk about it all in this episode. Rosalina and Shauna have two completely different plans, which makes it interesting to learn more about their approach post-cancer treatment.
