For women who’ve had breast cancer and would like to have a child, taking a break from a common treatment to try for a pregnancy appears safe in the short term.
A clinical trial studied the effect of temporarily halting hormone therapy, also called endocrine therapy, which reduces the risk that breast cancer will return. After about three years, the incidence of recurring or new breast cancer among women who paused the therapy was nearly the same as in a
