Oncotype is KEY to treatment if you are Estrogen positive which is 80% of Breast Cancers.

A favorable Oncotype of under 25 for post menopausal women, 18 for pre-menopausal women, means CHEMO is NOT beneficial and therefore not administered. 🌸

Thank you.
Not sure what it means that I am 15% low positive and progesterone negative.
I guess when surgeon refers me to an oncologist I will find out if estrogen blockers would help me.
