Hormones and Cancer:What Patients Need to Know About Their Options
Hearing the word “cancer” changes everything. Overnight, your life becomes a blur of appointments, decisions, and fear.
Doctors tell you what to do, when to do it, and how to feel — and somewhere in the noise, your own voice gets lost. Too often, you’re made to believe there’s only one way forward, especially when it comes to hormone replacement therapy after breast cancer.
But that isn’t the whole story.
In this episode of Medical Disruptors, I sit down with Dr. Tiffany Troso, an oncologist with over 25 years in breast cancer treatment, who left the traditional system to become a true patient advocate.
Together, we dig into what most patients are never told: the different types of breast cancer, what estrogen and progesterone receptors actually mean, and why hormone therapy may still be possible even after a diagnosis.
We also talk about triple negative breast cancer, the risks of HRT after treatment, and how precision medicine and genetic testing are opening doors to new options.
This conversation isn’t just about chemo. It’s about clarity, choice, and control. If you’ve ever walked out of an oncology appointment feeling dismissed, confused, or scared to ask questions, this episode will remind you that your instincts matter.
There are doctors who listen. There are advocates who show up. And there are real options for cancer care beyond the narrow script you’ve been handed.
You don’t have to settle. You get to choose what happens next.
