Endocrine Treatments for Breast Cancer
Estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer can be treated with endocrine therapies, also called hormonal therapies. These drugs come in two classes: selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs)and aromatase inhibitors. These lower your estrogen levels, and may affect your fertility, as well as preventing a recurrence of breast cancer. Learn more about endocrine therapies for breast cancer.
