Interesting but I'm confused I thought Tamoxifen was for pre-mensual woman and AIs for post???

Sarah,

Tamoxifen can be taken by both pre and post menopausal women, while AI's are only for post menopausal women.

Hope this helps,

Hopeful

I really can't decide if I want a heart attack or cancer hmmmm, thanks for the info!:)
