S2E9: Hormone Therapy | Aromatase Inhibitors | Ovarian Suppression

Too Young For This Shit | AYA Breast Cancer Podcast by Rosalina and Shauna

Episode notes

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.
