Hello, I need some advice regarding my mother’s breast cancer. Luckily, it is in its primary stage so the prognosis is actually very good. But there is always a problem. It seems that I have to take Tamoxifen for decreasing the level of estrogen, which is too high. It seems that it is also used for preventing the cancer recurrence.

I know that it is used for estrogen and that estrogen must be decreased because it helps in the fastening the cancer’s development. As for the recurrence, let’s hope that it will never happen and that the current treatments and therapies you are taking will help in making you healthy and happy again.
