A member asked:

Can pemf help with stage 2 cancer post surgery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No evidence : pulsed electromagnetic field therapy is used to help bone heal and maybe for depression. If someone is trying to sell you a PEMF unit for cancer therapy, call your local prosecuting attorney.
