Does having your ovaries removed reduce the chance of breast cancer returning? I'm 32 have 3 children already had always wanted a bigger family but I am more than happy with what I already have, would having them removed reduce it coming back?

Hi Lizzy,
Unfortunately I can't answer this question but our lovely team of cancer nurses should be able to help so if you'd like to get their thoughts on this do be sure to give them a call on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.
Your breast cancer nurse (if you were allocated one) or medical team should be able to give you more information about this as well.
Kind regards,
