1. Why am I using EXEMESTANE-WGR?

EXEMESTANE-WGR contains the active ingredient exemestane. EXEMESTANE-WGR is an aromatase inactivator. It works by significantly reducing the supply of estrogen (a natural female sex hormone) to cancer cells.

This stops the growth of those cancer cells which normally need estrogen to grow.
