Personalization,
not prohibition.

For decades, I treated breast cancer and watched many women survive. Too many were then left managing symptoms that were minimized, misunderstood, or simply untreated.

CHOICES is where I put the language, evidence, and practical steps that help women get relief and help clinicians prescribe with confidence.

What is CHOICES?

Survival should not be the end of the conversation.

CHOICES brings hormone science, sexual health, and cancer survivorship back into the same room, so women and clinicians can move beyond blanket reassurance or blanket prohibition toward informed shared decision-making.

Featured Conversation

Cancer, sex, and hormones

Dr. Bosserman joins Dr. Kelly Casperson on the You Are Not Broken podcast for an hour on the questions oncology too often skips: what the evidence actually says about hormones after cancer, why menopausal hormone therapy was never one thing, and how to have a real risk-and-benefit conversation instead of a blanket no.
