What is “Combination” Breast Cancer Treatment?
Many breast cancer patients embrace a mixed approach to their healing, seeking to combine Standard of Care Treatments (SOC) or only parts of it, with Off-Label Treatments and/or Alternative Therapies that not only minimize harsh side effects but some actually provide scientifically backed effect cancer treatment.
This breast cancer patient empowering strategy allows women to take charge of their health journey, blending some standard of care treatment, like surgery to remove visible tumors and repurposed drugs (Off-Label) and localized treatments, such as Hyperthermia and then adding alternative medicines – supplements, in place of chemotherapy that creates a cancer killing cocktail that attacks the cancer from different angles, all at the same time and is less toxic, or non-toxic to their body.
Because this approach tends to be less toxic patients can remain on their effective protocols for a longer periods of time maintaining their health and their quality of life.
Patients employing Combination Treatments can create a much more personalized treatment plan with their healthcare providers. Finding doctors who support this approach can be challenging without knowing where to look. It’s essential to choose a doctor who accepts your insurance to cover office visits and necessary tests. All insurance companies will pay for medically necessary tests ordered by an MD or DO. Some may also cover tests ordered by a Naturopathic Doctor (ND), but you might still need an MD or DO to order certain tests so your insurance will cover them.
The most helpful types of doctors for Combination Treatment are:
- Integrative Medicine MD/DO Primary Care Physicians (PCP)
- Internal Medicine MD/DO, PCP
- Functional Medicine Doctors (most don’t take insurance)
- Health & Wellness MD/DO
When embarking on a personalized breast cancer protocol you also need a physician who truly understands female hormones and menopause. These two are intertwined because even younger women are thrust into menopause by some of the surgeries or treatment medications – so this doctor is critical to their recovery and fertility.
What is a Compounding Pharmacy?
A compounding pharmacy is a specialized pharmacy that creates customized medications tailored to individual patient needs. Unlike standard medications that are mass-produced drugs, compounding pharmacists mix fresh ingredients to adjust dosage, formulation, or remove allergens specifically for you based on your doctor’s prescription.
You’ll need a Compounding Pharmacist in your state to create personalized doses of some specialty medications. For California, BCA recommends Mariya Pharmacy in Oxnard, CA.

Off-Label Treatments for Breast Cancer
Off-label means a medication is FDA approved for treating one condition or disease and a doctor wants to use that medication to treat a different condition or disease. This is completely legal and medically appropriate.
There are many scientifically proven off-label drugs for breast cancer, requiring a doctor’s prescription. These medications were originally created to treat another condition or disease Each woman’s cancer journey is unique, so what works for one may not work for another. Partnering with your medical team to explore these options can lead to a personal victory by creating a personalized and non-toxic protocol that could give you your life back! With the right strategy, you have the real potential to control – and conquer – your breast cancer without the toxic side effects of chemo, radiation and hormone suppressing drugs.
Taking control of your cancer care empowers you and fuels your healing process. By being proactive, you generate positive energy that creates a hopeful, resilient, and triumphant future for yourself.
Supplements
There are many supplements that have been scientifically proven to be anti cancer agents. Many of these specifically target breast cancer. These supplements will often times work as a great adjunct with standard and off-label treatments, substantially enhancing their effectiveness.
BCA believes that exploring these possibilities with your medical team will give you the edge you need to beat your cancer and help to prevent recurrences.

Alternative Therapies
Alternative therapies can greatly enhance a woman’s quality of life while navigating breast cancer treatment and beyond. When treatment is over breast cancer doesn’t end – it is a life-long condition that even when completely healed still requires regular scans and check ups, so you never quite escape it.
Creating self-care practices using Alternative Therapies helps to reduce the background anxiety that accompanies a breast cancer diagnosis that lingers after treatment is completed.
BCA believes that women facing or who have faced breast cancer benefit significantly from incorporating Alternative Therapies into their lives permanently.
