📋Overview
Fulvestrant is a medication classified as an estrogen receptor antagonist. It is primarily used in the management of certain types of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, particularly in postmenopausal women. By blocking the effects of estrogen in the body, it helps slow the growth of cancer cells that rely on this hormone. Fulvestrant is often considered when other hormonal therapies are not effective.
