What Are The Treatment Options For Breast Cancer

Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among women. Early detection and treatment can save lives. At Masood Hospital Lahore, we offer advanced care for breast cancer. Let’s look at the treatment options available.

1. Surgery

Surgery is one of the most common treatments for breast cancer. It involves removing cancerous tissue from the breast. There are two types of surgery:

  • Lumpectomy: Only the cancerous part is removed.
  • Mastectomy: The entire breast is removed.

2. Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy uses powerful medicines to kill cancer cells. It can:

  • Be given before surgery to shrink the tumor.
  • Be used after surgery to destroy remaining cancer cells.

3. Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays to kill cancer cells. It is often used after surgery to reduce the risk of cancer returning.

4. Hormone Therapy

Hormone therapy blocks hormones like estrogen that help cancer grow. This treatment is effective for hormone-sensitive breast cancers.

5. Targeted Therapy

Targeted therapy uses drugs that focus on specific changes in cancer cells. These medicines attack cancer while sparing healthy cells.

6. Immunotherapy

Immunotherapy boosts the body’s immune system to fight cancer. It is a newer treatment option for certain types of breast cancer.
