What is Femara taken for?

Femara is primarily used to treat breast cancer in women past menopause. This medication, available online at Canada pharmacy, works by decreasing the amount of estrogen the body produces. As a result, this deprives the breast cancer cells of estrogen, their main source for growth.

Breast cancer occurs when cells in your breast begin growing abnormally. These abnormal cells spread rapidly and may spread through your breast or into other parts of your body. The most common type of breast cancer can begin in the milk ducts, but cancer can also occur in the small sacs that produce milk (lobules) or in other breast tissue.

Signs and Symptoms of Breast Cancer

When breast cancer is detected early, you have more options for treatment, a better chance for long-term recovery, and a five-year survival rate of 95%. Getting to know the signs and symptoms may help save your life.

The most common sign of breast cancer for both men and women is a lump or thickening in the breast. Often, the lump is painless. Other signs include:

  • A spontaneous clear or bloody discharge from your nipple
  • Retraction or indentation of your nipple
  • A change in the size or contours of your breast
