Would pregnancy accelerate or decrease the proliferation of an er positive breast tumor?

Uncertain: Breast cancer during pregnancy is rare and only a few studies have evaluated this. Pregnancy can hide breast cancers ; make them more difficult to diagnose or found at a later or more advanced stage.

No definite effect: There is no clear cut harm or benefit from pregnancy in women with prior history of breast cancer regardless of the hormone receptor status of their cancer.
