Definitely talk through the options with your oncologist. I had my ovaries removed a year ago. Diagnosed a year before with ER+/HER2- MBC. Before the ovaries were removed, I was eligible for a few trials, so I went down that road first. Once my met started to grow, I swapped from Letrazole to Tamoxifen and had my ovaries removed (I had a cyst on one and we weren't sure what it was so this influenced our decision to remove them). I no longer need the Zoladex injection (yay!), but hot flushes aren't alot of fun. That said, my met has stopped growing and seems to be behaving itself. So worth it for me... not a hard operation. I'm 45. Amanda
