A member asked:
Which type of breast cancer treatment is best after surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: On the type of the cancer, the staging, and whether certain receptors are present, to name a few important factors. It also might depend to an extent on any pre existing conditions or co morbidities. So unfortunately without more specific information there is really no way to answer the question.
