Hormone receptor-positive breast cancer is a type of breast cancer that has cells with receptors for hormones like estrogen and progesterone. This means that these hormones can promote the growth of the cancer cells. About 70% of breast cancers are hormone receptor-positive, making it one of the most common types. Treatment for hormone receptor-positive breast cancer often includes hormone therapy, which aims to block these hormones or lower their levels in the body. This can help slow down or stop the growth of the cancer. Other treatments may include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, depending on the specific case.
