Treatment for Breast Cancer:
What Are the Options?

If you have breast cancer, you have more treatment options
than ever before. Some take less time, are safer, and are easier

on your body.

After you have been diagnosed with breast
cancer, your specialist team will discuss your
treatment options with you and their possible

side effects.

How Do I Choose the Right
Treatment?

• Type of breast cancer
• Size & stage of your cancer
• Age and how healthy you are

What Are My Treatment Options?

• Surgery
• Radiation therapy
• Chemotherapy
• Immunotherapy
• Cyberknife Treatment
• Implant Treatment

Are There any Side Effects?

• Many, like nausea, go away when the therapy stops. But
some may show up later.

• Symptoms of menopause, such as hot flashes

Survival Rates

The more advanced the cancer, the lower the chances of
survival becomes. By Stage IV, the 5-year survival rate
drops to 22%. But these rates will rise as more effective
treatments are found.
