Hormonal Therapy vs. Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer: What’s the Difference?

In this episode, we explore two major treatment options for breast cancer—hormonal therapy and chemotherapy—and break down how they work, their key differences, and when each is used. Whether you or a loved one are navigating a new diagnosis or learning more about available care, understanding these treatment options is crucial.

💡 You’ll Learn:
