Balanced News: Breast Cancer Under 40: Q&A With Ann Partridge, MD, MPH

Ann Partridge, MD, MPH, from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School, answered viewer questions about breast cancer risk in young people, treatment options, recurrence, and more. Young women generally have a low risk of developing new breast cancer in the other breast, but it is still important to discuss any concerns a young woman may have with her doctors. Clinical trials are a very important way for all of us to learn and improve care today and in the future. There are a number of different endocrine therapy options available for most people, and most young women can breastfeed after radiation therapy.
