5Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy involves using medications to eliminate cancer cells. You might need to take one or many drugs orally or intravenously. In most cases, your doctor would suggest a combination over a few months or weeks to improve effectiveness. Chemotherapy is usually done after surgery to remove the remaining cancer cells. It can also be combined with radiation therapy. Some doctors can even use it before surgery to reduce the size of the tumor, making it simpler to remove.[5]
