AMARILLO, Texas (KFDA) - An Amarillo doctor is now more optimistic about breast cancer survivors having children after recent research shows pregnancy did not increase the risk of having the cancer reoccur.
Before, pregnancy in breast cancer survivors was always scary due to the rise in estrogen and progesterone pregnancy causes.
Dr. Teresa Baker, an OBGYN professor at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center says women who become pregnant after being treated for breast cancer don’t have a higher risk of the cancer coming back.

Amber Wyatt was laid off from her job with the River Cats at the beginning of the pandemic and, after spending a few months bored at home, decided making and selling pies was her next move. Her business, The Pie Witch, started out small she only sold to friends and family but grew week by week. The name came from her boyfriend, who jokingly called her a “witch” for making him enjoy pies, which he’d never liked before. How does she do this? She adds flair to each pie by tweaking traditional recipes with unique ingredients. A few of her specialties: lemon meringue, lavender crème brûlée, la leche lemon and “after hours” pecan pie with bourbon. Each season, she drops a new menu, which includes fresh (never frozen) seasonal fruits. This winter, the menu features favorites such as ricotta lemon-thyme and chocolate chess.
