Olivia Munn details ‘terrifying’ breast cancer battle: Treatments put me into medically induced menopause

Olivia Munn is detailing her Stage 4 cancer diagnosis, which led to a double mastectomy, four surgeries in 10 months and treatments that put her into medically induced menopause.“I was not someone who obsessed over death or was afraid of it in any way,” Munn, 43, told People in its latest cover story. “But having a little baby at home made everything much more terrifying.”Last month, the “Newsroom” star announced she was diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer after several tests indicated she had luminal B — an aggressive and fast-moving form of cancer — in both of her breasts.“You realize cancer doesn’t care who you are; it doesn’t care if you have a baby or if you don’t have time,” she said, referring to her 2-year-old son, Malcolm, whom she shares with comedian John Mulaney.
