A4) Although I didn't utilize the fertility preservation journey there were financial options to assist. #TLCTransform

A5) I have never heard of #oncofertility.... #TLCTransform

A8) For anyone considering fertility preservation just ensure that you are provided all of your options and don’t be afraid to get a second opinion. #TLCTransform

A10) They can assist with making the journey better by providing ALL options. Don’t just assume because someone is 50 or 60 that they are no longer interested in having anymore kids.. #TLCTransform

DYK? About 20% of diagnosed breast cancers in the US are Triple Negative. We must do more to support women at increased risk for this aggressive type of cancer and address inequities faced by women with TNBC. 8197342.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hubfs/8197342/… #TNBCmonth #screenforTNBC #TNBCCantWait

#TLCtransform Good evening! I’m Tonya Hicks a breast cancer survivor and advocate tweeting from Raleigh, NC.

#TLCtransform Q1. Prior to my diagnosis my healthcare provider did discuss my family history and genetic testing. This is what lead me to have the genetic testing done because I do have a strong family history of breast cancer.

Q2. I feel that I was well informed by my provider but I still completed my own research as well. #TLCTransform

A1: When I heard the news I remember feeling numb.. It didn't really hit me until I called and told my twin sister. Thats when I broke down crying.. #tlctransform

A2: Some things women should keep an eye on is any lumps that appear abnormal, discharge from the nipple, and breast appearing to be deformed in any way..
