Chemotherapy

Chemotherapy is a powerful treatment option for cancer that involves the use of chemical drugs designed to destroy rapidly dividing cells. Since cancer cells multiply faster than most other cells in the body, chemotherapy is effective at targeting and eliminating these cells. However, it can also affect healthy cells that divide quickly, such as those in the hair follicles, digestive system, and bone marrow, leading to side effects.

 

Chemotherapy is often combined with other treatments like surgery, radiation therapy, or hormone therapy to increase its effectiveness. The decision to use chemotherapy as part of a combination therapy depends on several factors, including the type and stage of cancer, your overall health, prior treatments, the location of the cancer, and your personal preferences.

 

Treatment plans are carefully tailored to each patient, considering both the benefits and potential risks. Side effects can vary, but modern advancements in supportive care have made managing these side effects more effective, improving the overall experience for patients undergoing chemotherapy
