Tamoxifen

I've always heard that AI's were better for HER2 but that might have been before they were treating early bc with Herceptin, and therefore the HER2 was causing Tamoxifen resistance?

I'm confused as to which is going to be better for pre-menopausal (Ruth).

It's possible she'll be thrown into permament menopause by TCH, but possible not also. She has late menopause in her genes. If she goes AI, then we have to go ovary suppression by drugs or ooph. I know that Tamoixfen is much better for the bones (but harder on the heart?)
