Letrozole bloating

hi everyone, I've been on Zoladex & Letrozole for two months. Experiencing severe bloating - has anyone else noticed this?
thanks x
  • Yep, me too @Chipo. I have had SO many hot flushes over the last few days it's driving me batty. Sweats, painful needle sharp sensations up and down my arms and hands. It's bloody awful. I 'cope' with water spray, little fans that plug into my phone and iced cold water. Three months of taking Letrozole and there's no sign of them settling down yet...
  • Hi ladies ever since been on zoladex , l have lost weight 91 kg to 79 kg . I’m also on letrozole now . Hot flushes galore . How do you girls cope . I feel like screaming at times . 
  • You can get peppermint capsules, Mintec I think is one brand. Probably a cheaper option is peppermint cordial in hot water. Works a treat for wind pain.
    Take care, 
    Lyn
  • Yes l eventualy had to go on a stomach med but l still get the ocassional bloat. But l notice certain foods worse than others l recently started using iberogast f rom the chemist that works well
