¿Qué es la terapia hormonal para el cáncer de mama?

ID: ANH15164S107es
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: Otra opción de tratamiento es la terapia hormonal. Las hormonas son sustancias que se encuentran naturalmente en el cuerpo. El estrógeno es una de estas hormonas. Su cuerpo utiliza el estrógeno principalmente para el crecimiento y desarrollo del útero, las mamas y los ovarios. Sin embargo, el estrógeno también puede promover el crecimiento de ciertas células cancerosas que son receptoras hormonales positivas. Un tipo de terapia hormonal bloquea el estrógeno para que no se una a las células del cáncer de mama y así no haga que estas células crezcan y se dividan.
