Pregnancy after Breast Cancer

[Doreen789]

When they say to wait 2 to 3 years after Ajuvant Treatment. Are they reffering to Herceptin or Hormone theraphy?

[Cleveland Clinic]

Dear Doreen789:  Adjuvant therapy includes all therepy - chemotherapy, herceptin, hormone therapy.

It is manly the hormone therapy..Any treatment for cancer (chemotherapy/ radiotherapy/ hormone) in not safe for preganancy. Herceptin can cause decreased amount of fluid between fetus and uterus (amniotic fluid) but after 6 months its rik is low while tamoxifen is teratogenic (can cause developmental abnormality in embryo). It is wise to wait for 2-3 yrs after completion of therapy.
