Sarah Kuttner health situation

Overview

German presenter and author Sarah Kuttner has undergone medical examinations following an abnormal finding during a routine screening. Kuttner initially shared that she underwent a breast biopsy, describing the procedure as “voll aushaltbar” (completely bearable) and expressing a cautious sense of optimism that the outlook seemed “ganz okay” (quite okay). Following further medical developments, Kuttner announced the cancellation of all upcoming reading tours for her book “Mama & Sam” to prioritize her health. She disabled social media comments on her announcement to avoid unsolicited medical advice or sympathy. Ticket holders are being processed for refunds. Kuttner has since provided more specific details regarding her diagnosis, revealing that she is undergoing treatment for breast cancer. She described a tumor in her right breast, approximately three centimeters in size, as “medium-sized, medium-dangerous” (mittelgroß, mittelgefährlich). As part of her cancer therapy, Kuttner shared that she was medically induced into menopause approximately two weeks ago. She noted that while she experiences menstrual pain, she finds the certainty of this transition to be a “cool” experience compared to a natural menopause. In a recent update via her podcast, “Das kleine Fernsehballett,” Kuttner announced that she must undergo chemotherapy. She explained that recent molecular biological tissue tests, known as Onkotests, revealed her tumor is more active than previously anticipated, making chemotherapy a safer course of action than hormone therapy and surgery alone. The treatment is expected to last four and a half months. As she approaches her first session, Kuttner expressed feeling “tense and impatient.” She shared on Instagram that she intends to cut her own hair to prepare for the treatment, displaying a dark brown wig and hair cutting tools.
