Advanced Hormonal Therapy

Hormonal therapy works by either lowering the levels of certain hormones in the body or by blocking them from reaching cancer cells. Many cancers, like breast, prostate, and some ovarian cancers, are “hormone-sensitive” — meaning their growth is fueled by natural hormones such as estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone.

Hormonal Therapy in Cancer Treatment: Expert Care with Dr. Neha Gupta

Hormonal therapy, also known as endocrine therapy, is a powerful treatment option for certain types of cancer. It works by interfering with the body’s natural hormones to either slow down or stop the growth of cancer cells that rely on hormones to thrive. Under the guidance of Dr. Neha Gupta, patients receive personalized hormonal therapy plans designed to maximize treatment success while minimizing side effects.

Key Benefits of Hormonal Therapy

Hormonal therapy offers several important advantages, especially when integrated into a comprehensive cancer care plan:

    • Targeted Action: Hormonal therapy specifically targets hormone-driven cancers, such as breast and prostate cancers, offering a focused and effective treatment.

    • Non-Invasive Treatment: It often involves oral medications or injections, providing a non-surgical treatment option.

    • Helps Prevent Recurrence: Hormonal therapy can reduce the risk of cancer returning after surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.

    • Can Be Combined with Other Treatments: It is often used alongside chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery to increase overall treatment effectiveness.

    • Improves Survival Rates: Studies have shown that hormonal therapy can significantly improve long-term survival in hormone-sensitive cancers.

    • Maintains Quality of Life: Many patients are able to continue daily routines and activities during hormonal therapy, especially when side effects are well-managed.

How Hormonal Therapy Works

Hormonal therapy can work in two main ways:

  1. Blocking Hormone Receptors: Certain drugs attach to hormone receptors on cancer cells, preventing the hormone from binding and fueling cancer growth.

  2. Lowering Hormone Production: Other therapies stop the body from producing the hormones that stimulate cancer growth.

The choice of therapy depends on the type of cancer, its hormone receptor status, and the patient’s overall health.
