I read an article that they have some research that show taking an AI 9 months of the year with 3 months off was as effective as everyday. I was jealous because I’m on tamoxifen. I didn’t spend much time reading through the article or following up on the research it references - which you’d want to do if you were considering this option.

Thanx for the info. Personally I believe most women are being overdosed, especially since the drug stays in your system for 50 hours. Taking the drug EVERY DAY? I believe it's overdosing. Does cutting back to dosing every OTHER day still prove effective? That's what I'm doing - testing out that theory. Now your statement about AI intrigues me. OMG, how wonderful is that!!??
