Hormone therapy for breast cancer. Hormone therapy is a form of systemic therapy that works to add, block or remove hormones from the body to slow or stop the growth of cancer cells.
Cancer cells with these receptors depend on estrogen and related hormones, such as progesterone, to grow. Estrogen and progesterone influence many hormonal functions in women, such as breast development. If breast cancer cells have estrogen receptors, the cancer is called ER-positive breast cancer.
