Hi @youngdogmum,
Did you reach any conclusions on this? I had stage2b ilc grade 2 (no lymph node, just big tumour) . Have had 45/60 zolodex and on exemestane. Originally i was supposed to have 10 years ai and 5 years zolodex. Onc now saying 5 years ai. I think you cant be on ai if you havent been through menopause, and as there is no easy way to tell im not sure what the actual plan was re ovarian suppression. Ive been complaining more recently about symptoms. I dont want my ovaries out as concerned ill be stuck forever with the symptoms. I was 48 at diagnosis. Id be surprised if my ovaries are still functional but obviously i want to keep cancer away.
