Menopause after treatment

I thought the aromatase inhibiters were only for post-menopausal women, so I would get in touch with your GP or BCN to see why you are having a monthly mini-period. If that is the case, exemestane or letrazol may not be the right drug for you, unless you are taking zoladex too to stop your periods - but then your periods should have stopped altogether on that.

As for your mental health, I didn't suffer as much as it sounds like you are, but I did have mood swings that made me not feel like me any more. I eventually got help from my GP and now take a low-dose anti-depressant that has been amazing at making me feel like the old me again in my head.

Please do seek a medical opinion as it sounds like some adjustments are needed.

I’ve just started Letrozole and my abdomen feels sore all the time - like it’s gearing up for a period but no bleeding …. I’m going to ask my oncologist as I know I’ve got cysts and fibroids which might not like the fact I’ve suddenly gone into menopause - I am having zoladex monthly to make sure I am and stay menopausal as I wasn’t before cancer treatment.  And I do feel low. But it’s only been two weeks for me and I’m hoping it will get better.  Please let us know how you go and what your oncologist suggests. I hope things work out better for you soon.
