Product details of Arimidex 1mg
Estrogen is released from the ovaries, but after menopause, it changes from the adrenal glands to the male hormone androgen to estrogen.
The enzyme that acts for conversion is aromatase, which is present in the mammary gland, muscle, and adipose tissue, but in the case of hormone-sensitive breast cancer, estrogen is produced because it is in the breast cancer tissue.
Inhibiting aromatase activity reduces estrogen in plasma and suppresses the growth of cancer cells.
