Hormone Therapy
Hormone Therapy is a cancer treatment that works by blocking, lowering, or removing hormones that promote the growth of certain hormone-sensitive cancers.
What Is Hormone Therapy?
Hormone therapy slows or stops the growth of cancers that rely on hormones to develop. By interfering with hormone production or action, this treatment helps control cancer progression and may be used alone or alongside other therapies.
Types of Hormone Therapy
1. Hormone Blocking Therapy
Medications that prevent hormones from attaching to cancer cells.
2. Hormone Lowering Therapy
Treatments that reduce the amount of hormones produced by the body.
3. Surgical Hormone Therapy
Surgical removal of hormone-producing glands in selected cases.
