Hi Gerri,
I too started out peri-menopausal and took Tamoxifen.
I was only on it 4 months and then switched to an A.I.

My onc. made the decision based on my blood work. I
was in full menopause after my chemo treatments and
kept having blood work to see if I was staying there.

I guess I would wait and see what the endocrinologist
has to say. Good luck with all of this. I take Arimidex
and have not been told by my onc. that Femera is
better. I will ask about that at my next appointment.
