There are apparently many types of breast cancer; some types are more estrogen dependent.

You should really consult with your oncologist about the appropriateness of HRT meds as a breast cancer survivor.

You might also search the Mayo connect postings under the name Windy Shores. She had been treated for breast cancer and could not take HRT.

Thanks. I will do that. I actually do have the estrogen kind tho unfortunately

It's funny the doctors are sort of mixed. That vaginal stuff that's so helpful, my oncologist was immediately like 'never use that again.' And yet my gyno at the time said she had a lot of women breast cancer patients who went back to it. Someone told me they thought maybe my oncologist had had a bad experience with a patient and that's why she was so anti even the vaginal stuff.

I also had read about something that sounded good, red sage clover. Some study in British Columbia said it was as good as fosomax and the rest. But when I looked it turned out to was a phytoestrogen like soy - I guess in a different way, because now the thinking is that's actually good for us -- and don't use if you have breast cancer. The thing I'm most interested in now is LOEP Local Osteo Enhancement Procedure. Maybe I'll make a separate page for people to disuss https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12035697/
