Should I take aromatase inhibitors after breast cancer treatment?

I have the same story pretty much as you. I decided to go on hormonal blockers I have had minimal side effects. Just worry about long term usage. Dam if you do dam if you don’t

After chemo bilateral mastectomies and radiation for a grade llb ER+, HER -, ( and later changed to Grade Iii due to size of tumor and positive nodes- one side) but no evidence of distal Mets and surgeon claimed it a cure, my oncologist is wanting to add chemo pill x2 years with anastrozole which I am tolerating very well- I am going to continue just the anastrozole indemnity, bump up bone management and stay away from any more chemo, keeping in mind the science is changing every day...a second opinion agreed with me after heavy research

Making treatment decisions after breast cancer can feel overwhelming, especially when weighing potential benefits against side effects. Many community members have shared similar concerns about aromatase inhibitors and bone health. This decision is deeply personal and depends on many individual factors that only you and your oncologist can fully evaluate together. Consider discussing your specific concerns about bone density monitoring, preventive measures, and alternative options with your care team - they may have strategies to help manage the risks you're worried about while supporting your long-term health goals.
