Hi there.
i was diagnosed last year at 40.
I started on tamoxifen and my oncologist monitored my oestrogen levels. Unfortunately they started to increase but no return of my period.
i was started on zoladex. Once bloods confirmed menopause, I was commenced on exemestane. I have found it much kinder than tamoxifen. I take a calcium/d supplement.
My surgeon/oncologist/radiation oncologist/gynaecologist have all advised me that they believe oophrectomy is my best option.
Quite frankly I don’t want an injection every month. The 5-10% failure rate is off putting as well.
So 5 more sleeps until surgery!!! Woohoo!
