While having radiation treatment, did you take Letrozole while on radiation therapy?

This is such an important question about timing treatments together! Many patients wonder about taking hormone therapy medications like Letrozole alongside radiation, and treatment schedules can vary quite a bit from person to person based on individual circumstances. Connecting with others who have navigated similar treatment combinations can be really valuable for understanding different experiences.

I started Letrozole a week after I had my last radiation treatment. My doctor wanted to keep them separate so we could tell if or which one I was having side effects of.

I was told radiation oncology wants you to wait until after radiation to start these drugs.
