This is one of the most common types of cancer treatment that utilizes a series of medications to destroy existing cancer cells or slow down the growth of rapidly dividing cancer cells.

Depending on the case, chemotherapy can be recommended before or after cancer surgery thus ensuring no cancer cell survives.

This type of therapy utilizes some groups of medications that block or reduce the production levels of hormones in the body that decreases the chance of growth cancers of certain organs like the breasts, uterus, ovaries, and prostate gland.
