FactorsFactor ix complex such as
EstrogenHormone replacement therapy and Progesterone receptors as well as HER 2-neu overexpression may contribute to a slightly higher (or lower) risk of recurrence but these numbers are guesses, at best. What we do know is that these
factorsFactor ix complex will help us to determine which types of treatments are likely to be most effective. The relationship of HER 2-neu does not necessarily increase your risk for other cancers, although this is not well researched. Having had cancer of any kind does increase your risk for developing another cancer, although this risk is not high. Some women who have had breast cancer are at higher than average risk for ovarian cancer. Having had breast cancer does put you at risk for a second breast cancer. To date, there is not adequate research to demonstrate that anti-oxidants will significantly reduce the risk of cancer.
