Estrogen And Cancer


What is the link between estrogen and cancer? In a new video, An Oasis of Healing senior medical staff Dr. Nathan Goodyear talks about estrogen and cancer, estrogen receptors, hormones, and a plethora of other topics related to treatment for cancer. According to Dr. Goodyear, when doctors and patients talk about hormones and cancer, most people will relate it to breast cancer. They re thinking triple positive which is ER-positive. They are also thinking triple negative which would be ER-negative. What doctors talk about and what patients think about is true, but it is often oversimplifying a very complex process, he said. Dr. Goodyear explained, When a woman produces estrogen, it has to bind to its receptor and then sends the signal inside to the nucleus. It s important to understand that there are receptors of estrogen on the cell membrane surface and nuclear receptors. So, it s not just something that is on the surface, they can also be inside the cell. He further noted that estrogen does stimulate a lot of different types of cancer.
