My particular breast cancer was NOT hormone driven according to the doctors. It also was NOT genetic though my mother had it also....a different kind...but that was tested too.
I saw real doctors at a research hospital/university.
As far as I know, most iron supplements are entirely heme iron. So taking them is worse (when it comes to cancer) than eating red meat, since only about 20% of iron in red meat is heme iron (the rest is the good free iron).
It was an oncologist who told me to take low dose iron supplement.
