    Can anyone recommend a Dr in NY that can recommend supplements to prevent BC? My family has a history of ER/PR positive BC (no gene mutations found).

    I want to reduce my risk. I'm premenopausal and don't want to take Tamoxifen. All the info out there is so confusing. Do I take DIM? flaxseed? miatake? Greentea? Turneric?

    I'm looking into BreastDefend and Breast Mater. But would rather a professional advise me better. This is so confusing!

    Thx in advance!

    I don't have a personal recommendation for you because I don't live anywhere near NY, but I didn't want your post to go unanswered.

    There is a Chinese Medicine doctor in New York who I have seen recommended elsewhere on these boards. He has reportedly had some success treating ER+ breast cancer, and maybe his program could be used for prevention. His Name is George YC Wong (link to his website). You might also check out this thread on the boards to get answers to some of your questions. It's harder to find an MD who will help you with a supplement program.There's just not enough proof one way or the other for most of them to feel comfortable making recommendations. And be careful, because there is a lot of quackery out there, and just because a substance is natural doesn't make it safe and effective.
