I have a friend who has a cancer. Her doctor says that it is estrogen and progesterone fueled and want to put her on hormone blockers. However, these drugs have tremendous side effects.
Does anyone know of any natural, vitamin or herbal estrogen and/or progesterone blockers?
I also have an uncle with some kind of male cancer that is testosterone sensitive. What can block testosterone?

It might be helpful here if you could tell us what drugs they want her to take. Then, people might be able to give you some responses based on personal experience.

You might also ask on one of the cancer boards and on the vitamins and supplements board.

Thank you for your reply.

They want her to take tamoxifen.
