pregnancy after Triple Negative Breast Cancer

Honeytagh · March 2015

Hi every body.

I m wondering if any one has had the experience of pregnancy after tnbc or has heard of pregnancy after it? And how long should someone wait before getting pregnant? Before all this experience I was trying to have my second baby and now I don't know if there will be any chance for me. I'm 32 diagnosed with stage 1 medullary carcinoma.

I hope you hear from someone on this. I wondered the same thing and also how do we know if we are in permanent menopause or still chemo pause? Did you get your period back after treatment? I'm 4 months out still no sign of it.

So glad you posted this. ))

Hi SA8PG

Thanks alot for your response. In fact I had my periods during my chemo but after having 2 dipherline injections I lost them. But I wish you and me have them soon again. By the way can I ask you how old you are and if you yourself wanted double mastectomy?

Hi Alibeths

I'm extremely sorry you are going through this again and I pray deep in my heart for your recovery. Throughout this site I have been informed about many ladies who have had long productive life after their reoccurance. I am sure you will be one of those.

Han Tagh I'm 39. They started my chemo when I was 3 weeks post partum from delivering my son. I have had nothing but cramping that started this month. Maybe this is a sign that it is trying to return?

To answer your question on double masectomy no I didn't want it at all. Was going to do lumpectomy until I found out I am brca 1 so opted for the mx instead.

Alibeths thanking you for sharing & I'm sorry you are dealing with a reoccurrence. Did you find it or was it found on scans? What is your treatment plan? Sending you prayers, love & hugs & as Han Tagh said a long productive life.

thanks girls. I had surgery this am, so this is short!!!! Dr said all looked great. If there is any spot for a recurrence, she said this is it. My dr felt my armpit a tiny bit awollen. She wasn't going to, but she said lets ultrasound to be sure. When that looked suspicious, I had a biopsy and petscan. Oh and an MRI!!! Omg. It nevr ends. 😡keep I touch. Where do you guys live?
