I was talking to a woman who had a partial glossectomy and radiation, and her radiation doc told her not to take any estrogen based products such as HRT or black cohosh. What is the connection here? I asked my H&N oncologist and was told there is no problem. I have been taking a low-dose form of the Pill for perimenopausal symptoms and would like to get some clarification on this. Thanks.
SCC right rear tongue, T2N0, diagnosed Feb 06. Partial glossectomy, partial neck dissection (26 nodes clean), flap from thigh, Mar 06.
