Did you have hormone blocker during adjuvant chemo?

My cancer was multifocal, grade 3, 9mm of extracapsular invasion in lymph node. No scans to check for spread as only one other node affected. Had first dose of AC 5 weeks post op but 2nd dose wAs not for a further 5 weeks due to wound infection.

I guess I'm wondering if anyone had any sort of hormone therapy before chemo started or while on chemo? I worry about cells that may have got out and essentially had free reign for 10 weeks.

I haven't had a period since second dose of AC, so I guess estrogen production reduced due to chemopause??

Ive been told my chances of recurrence are 25% after treatment. It still seems so high.
