Is Metformin a good alternative to aromatase inhibitors for cancer?

Treatment decisions like choosing between metformin and aromatase inhibitors are highly individual and depend on many factors specific to each person's cancer type, stage, and overall health picture. It would be valuable to discuss both options thoroughly with your oncology team, as they can weigh the potential benefits and risks based on your complete medical history and current research evidence for your specific situation.

I’m on Metformin because I’m type II diabetic. I’ve never heard of taking it for breast cancer. I already know when I’m done with chemotherapy I’ll have radiation and aromatase inhibitors for 5 years

I’ve heard that metformin can help with AI side effects and also help make it more effective. Consider taking both??
