Stopped Letrozole this week, how long before side effects go away?

I don’t know much about it, but I’m running out of aromatase inhibitors I can take so I’m trying to find options. It’s a non-traditional medicine supplement. I think it’s naturopathic. It’s called diindolylmethane, DIM for short.
There are discussion groups on the web about it.
My oncologist told me not to give up on AIs, and said he didn’t know about DIM but that I could take it.

I’ve run out of AIs and Tamoxifen side effects are just as bad. I will try a reduced dosage of Tamoxifen before totally giving up. My oncologist said 50% of women Refuse to take AIs. He forgot to mention they can’t take them due to the side effects.
I asked him about DIM and I got the feeling he only supports medications created and tested by large drug companies. I guess that’s his job. He couldn’t tell me about DIM even though I’m sure he’s heard of it.
I haven’t seen sites that discuss DIM, can you send a link please?
