Aprašymas

A comprehensive and compassionate approach to breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and what comes after, Beyond the Pink will educate and empower you to be your own—and best—advocate.
 
A breast cancer diagnosis is profoundly life-changing at any age but can be especially distressing for younger women who must navigate their diagnosis and treatment while balancing the responsibilities and pressure of career goals, parenting, fertility concerns, dating, relationships, marriage, and more. Despite the rise in breast cancer among younger women, resources for these patients can be few and far between, and it can be difficult to know which ones to trust.
 
Enter Beyond the Pink. As a board-certified medical oncologist specializing in breast cancer, Dr. Teplinsky picks up where the clinical visits leave off. Beyond the Pink goes beyond the science and medicine to focus on the challenges encountered by younger breast cancer previvors, survivors and thrivers, but the material is applicable for all who have been touched by breast cancer. Dr. Teplinsky helps them navigate their way through recovery and life, offering:
 

• A comprehensive look at diagnosis
• The most up-to-date information on treatment options
• Support for the issues especially common to younger patients, from fertility and family planning to parenting, work, and relationships
• An overview of treatment-related menopause with guidance to manage symptoms
• Compassionate and practical tools for emotional and psychological issues, such as anxiety, depression, body image, and fear of cancer recurrence
• Information on treating and living with metastatic breast cancer
• A clear overview of treatment-related effects on cardiovascular, bone, muscle, brain, and sexual health with actionable recommendations on managing them
• A comprehensive look at breast cancer screening, diagnosis, risk reduction and genetics
• Personal stories from breast cancer previvors, survivors and thrivers
