I was diagnosed with stage 2 hormone receptor breast cancer in March, I have had a double mastectomy and immediate, nipple sparing reconstruction and lymph node clearance. I declined chemotherapy when I discovered it would only improve my outcome by 3%, I have avoided radiotherapy by having a double mastectomy and I tried Tamoxifen for a short while and due to a range of symptoms decided I was not prepared to squander 5 years in such misery, so I stopped. I prefer quality over quantity...I work with elderly people and their lives are a miserable struggle for them. I talk to them a lot and have come to the conclusion that hormone deprivation has caused 99% of their mental, physical and emotional problems. I would prefer 5 good years to 20 miserable ones. I am going back on HRT and practising metabolic therapy for cancer...I know this carries a risk...but a life without hormones and all of the ill health that entails is not worth it for me...I am comfortable with my decision
So wise! I admire you. Because.my mum had BC, I compiled links with BC specialists who arecvery supportive of HRT. I hope the ino can empower you 💕. Best wishes to you from Germany 🇩🇪

I agree with you! I am 64 yo thin fit woman. I am going back on it too. It Stage 1 grade 1. DBL mast, node neg. HR+. Life without HRT is barely living for me. I am a retired healthcare professional. I agree most of the chronic diseases that plague women as they age are related to hormone depletion. A man may have lower testosterone but never fails to have some. When women’s ovaries give up, that is it. Thin Menopausal women also have a harder time due to no fat cells to make estrogen.
I had to come off HRT because of a BC diagnosis. The only reason I ever tried it was because of my inability to sleep postmenopause. Now because of the aromatase inhibitor I'm on, I still don't sleep. I would never consider HRT again.
So useful. Ty!!
