Have ADH and genetic mutation. What is your experience with doing these surgeries as preventative measure so don’t have to take estrogen blockers and avoid side effects?

Hi Ellie, to help you connect with other women who have ADH and are considering their treatment choices and weighing surgery and estrogen blocking treatment, I merged your 3 questions into one discussion here:

You will also find fellow ADHers talking about treatment options in these discussions:
- Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia (ADH) and taking an AI like Anastrozole https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/anastrozole-4/
