Publisher Marketing:
A comprehensive and compassionate approach to breast cancer diagnosis, treatment, and what comes after, to educate and empower you to be your own--and best--advocate.

A breast cancer diagnosis is profoundly life-changing at any age, but can be especially distressing for younger women who must navigate their diagnosis and treatment while balancing the responsibilities and pressure of career goals, parenting, fertility concerns, dating, relationships, marriage, and more. Despite the rise in breast cancer among younger women, resources for these patients can be few and far between, and it can be difficult to know which ones to trust.

Enter Beyond the Pink. As a board-certified medical oncologist specializing in breast cancer, Dr. Teplinsky picks up where the clinical visits leave off. Beyond the Pink goes beyond the science and medicine to focus on the challenges encountered by younger breast cancer previvors, survivors and thrivers, but the material is applicable for all who have been touched by breast cancer. Dr. Teplinsky helps them navigate their way through recovery and life, offering:

A comprehensive look at screening, diagnosis, and genetics with the most up-to-date information on treatment options
Practical tools for emotional and psychological issues, such as anxiety, depression, body image, and fear of cancer recurrence
Information on treating and living with metastatic breast cancer
A clear overview of how cancer treatments affect health, including menopause, cardiovascular, bone, muscle, brain, and sexual health, with practical strategies to manage them
Real stories from breast cancer previvors, survivors and thrivers

If you or someone you love has been diagnosed with breast cancer, Beyond the Pink is your go-to resource from a trusted expert.
