Oncologist Questions Breast Cancer

Are there any chances for regrowth of my breasts?

I am a 36 year old woman who suffered from breast cancer. To prevent the disease from spreading further both my breasts were removed. Are there any chances that my breasts would regrow again?

Unfortunately the cancer can return even if the breasts are removed. The biggest worry is if the cancer has spread to the blood stream and can show up in other parts of the body. Chemotherapy and anti hormone therapy reduce this risk if needed.
Not if breast tissue is removed. See a plastic surgeon about implants if desired.
