Giving birth to a child after having breast cancer has no detrimental effect on the woman’s prospects of surviving the illness, according to a new study.
The report, carried out by the Medical Research Council Centre for Reproductive Health, at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland, found out the likelihood of overcoming breast cancer is also no worse in younger women or those who had never been pregnant before.
While a woman goes through pregnancy, the amount of estrogen and progesterone hormones in the body increase.
