Hormone Therapy (tablets)

How this treatment impacted my life the most

"It really doesn't affect my life because I am happy with where I am right now. I never sit and feel sorry about my life. I get up and am happy to be alive. I have a family whom I love and care so much about, and I still enjoy life to the fullest.

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

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

"I am satisfied with my treatment because it is minor and the only inconvenience is having to get up three to four times a night to urinate. It is the best option for my age currently as I am undergoing chemotherapy for my colon cancer. I am quite happy with the tablet."
