Hormone Therapy (injections)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

The fact that I had to go to the Hospital every 3 months.

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

The surgery and radiotherapy I think the side effects are greater than the hormone treatments and was advised against those because of my age.
