This is a great question that many people with hormone positive breast cancer consider. While metformin is primarily a diabetes medication, some researchers have been studying its potential effects in cancer care, though the evidence is still being evaluated. It's definitely worth discussing with your oncology team, as they can best advise based on your specific situation and medical history. Hopefully others in the community will share their experiences and insights with you as well!
