[quote=Anonymous][img][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did she do IVF to get pregnant? Isn't there an increased risk of hormonal cancers like breast because of IVF treatments?[/quote] I also have breast cancer. This is a hot topic in some of the breast cancer groups. A lot of women, when they’re diagnosed, want to know what they did to cause it. And I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a link to IVF. But I will tell you, as a young, healthy woman who breastfed, exercised, conceived naturally, doesn’t drink, doesn’t smoke, etc…. Sometimes it’s a crapshoot. My tumor was hormone negative (meaning hormones weren’t the problem in my case). [/quote] NP here - hi PP, I am in Bethesda and was just diagnosed with BC a few weeks ago. If you have any good local resources, FB groups, support groups, could you please share with me. I am hormone positive by the way, and tumors are in my left breast. Never smoked, took drugs, hardly ever drink etc, but did IVF and did get covid waxed multiple times. [/quote] NP. Why do you mention the covid vax? Is there a correlation?[/quote] I talked to a friend's friend, who also has BC and she swears that she got it after her two covid vax......who knows....I got five Pfizers vaxs...[/quote] Fake news[/quote] While they haven’t documented a correlation, I will say this: when I got my mammogram last week, they asked me when I got my last covid vax an on which side. They asked the same question the year before. Last year I asked why and if there’s any issue/correlation. The response? “We aren’t supposed to say so, but many women coming in for scans experiencing pain have inflammation on the breast or armpit on the vax side.” My obgyn told me the same thing. The radiologists are tracking and I assume someone is studying this. [/quote] It is because of your lymph nodes. Because that is how the immune system works. It isn’t some conspiracy. It is literally how you produce the antibodies. [/quote]
