Hormone Receptors in Breast Cancer provides an up-to-date resource of the role of hormone receptors in breast cancer written in depth for both the basic molecular academic researcher and translational scientist. Advances in basic science of molecular endocrinology have undoubtedly been translated into clinical practice, and clinicians caring for this disease need to be knowledgeable about these developments. The molecular basis of hormone action has been elucidated, and the relative significance of the different estrogen and progesterone receptor isoforms has been explored. This explosion of information has lead to exciting new areas of gene specific targeting of the disease, and breast cancer prevention. Paradigm shifts in treatment options and sequencing have recently occurred in breast cancer management, necessitating close cooperation and communication between translational scientists and physicians. This book is focused on providing this communication.

i am 5 months preg and single. but the good thing is that i am still in contact with the childs father that?
i have been with for 5 years, he still helps me w/my rent, as i just moved out of his place a few months ago, and he takes me to my prenatal appointments.. But i do get lonely, are there any women that is going through a pregnancy on their own? or does anyone know of any online support groups or websites?
I'm not a single mother or mother to be but i know that the women on whattoexpect.com are great. They have a section where you can go to the month that you are expecting and just talk about how life is going. Its been a god send when i'm frustrated and my boyfriend doesn't get how hormonal i am. I think it is better to just wait until after the baby is born to start any new relationship. I know its hard but it wont only be better for your baby later down the road but you too. Guys who see pregnant women looking for company usually just use them for sex and then split the second the baby comes.

I'm just finishing up my first trimester and I'm already too big for all my cute jeans (Rock and Republic, 7 for all Mankind, etc.)
I'm wondering if I should sell them on eBay, then use the money to buy some cute designer maternity clothes. I'm worried that after being pregnant, I'm just going to stay fat, then get pregnant again in another year. Then it will be a waste to just have all my nice, expensive jeans stored in a box. They could be out of style before the next time I get to wear them.
They are all such cute, good quality jeans and I was so happy when I bought each pair and I've taken really good care of them all. Has anyone else had this problem? What should I do?
I've learned with personal experience that after the first baby your hips are permanently wider. I never could get back into me size 5 jeans even after I lost the weight I'd gained during the pregnancy.
As far as putting the jeans on eBay - I'd wait until the end of the summer when people are shopping for fall clothes. You'll get a lot more money for them. And hey, by then you should have had the baby and know if they'll still fit!
