I have been researching a ton and MANY women are having those side effects from aromatase inhibitors... i dont know if it is necessary to take AIs with non cancer. i am in a lot of facebook breast cancer support groups and many women are finding success with non-rx medications like supplements and diet. exercise will help prevent breast cancer by 30%. your diet needs to be pristine, no meat, no soy, no dairy, low carb, no sugar, no pasta, bread, potatoes (they turn to sugar quickly)... THIS IS WHAT THE WOMEN are saying that got rid of their cancer by diet & supplements. my 2 sistsers and mom have breast cancer. i am on here to learn so i can try and help them........

@karenpow I have since switched all doctors. Just had first 6 month mammo and thankfully all is good. New doc did not think meds were the way to go at this time based on family/medical history and things I have implemented. Of course if anything changes we revise the plan. Since my ADH diagnosis I have lost almost 40 lbs, lowered my bmi, switched to a plant based diet, and exercise daily. I think there is still a lot they don't know about ADH. Previous oncologist prescribed meds for anyone with higher than normal risk, nothing was individualized. Seems like there could be a titre to do to monitor estrogen levels and determine dosage of AI, maybe every other day instead of daily or something like that. Every woman is different. Best of luck and sending positive thoughts your way for you and your family.
