Hormone blockers
I’m seriously considering stopping my hormone blocker. I’m off it at the moment since Monday and won’t take this one again. I’m talking to oncologist tomorrow, and will discuss maybe a different one....

I think it may depend on your individual circumstances and as others have said whether the possible benefits are worth the impact on your quality of life. I was diagnosed over 7 years ago and was told from the start that hormone blocking for me should be for 10 years. I started on Tamoxifen (2 years), switched to Femara after ovary removal (for 3 years, 3 months) and then changed back to Tamoxifen due to quality of life issues. I have always found my oncologist good to discuss options with. They have the benefit of understanding the research but also knowing you as an individual with unique circumstances.
