Benefits of Stimu-Let Tablet
In Treatment of Breast cancer
Stimu-Let Tablet relieves the symptoms of breast cancer such as breast lumps, bloody discharge from the nipple, or changes in the shape or texture of the breast. It works by altering the production of those hormones in the body that are essential for the growth and spread of breast cancer. It may also interact with other hormones or have a direct effect on cancer to stop its growth.
In Treatment of Infertility due to anovulation
Stimu-Let Tablet helps in the normal development of an egg in a woman's ovary (female reproductive organ) and stimulates the release of the egg during a process called ovulation. This helps to treat infertility in women. This increases the chance of a successful pregnancy. You should use the medicine as prescribed for it to be effective.

FAQs
Why have I been prescribed Stimu-Let Tablet?
Stimu-Let Tablet is an aromatase inhibitor. It is generally prescribed to treat breast cancer in women who no longer have periods, either due to menopause or after surgery or chemotherapy. It is also used to treat infertility caused due to anovulation (during menstrual cycle egg cell from ovaries is not released).
How does Stimu-Let Tablet work?
Stimu-Let Tablet is also known as an anti-estrogen drug. It is called so because it acts by reducing the production of estrogen in your body by blocking the enzyme aromatase, which is responsible for the production of estrogen. Estrogen stimulates the production of certain types of breast cancer in your body. These cancers are called "estrogen-dependent cancers". Reducing the production of estrogen may prevent cancer from growing.
For how long should I take Stimu-Let Tablet?
If the breast tumor is in the advanced stage or has spread to other parts of the body, it is recommended that you continue taking Stimu-Let Tablet till the tumor shows progression. In cases where Stimu-Let Tablet is given after tamoxifen (another anti-estrogen used for breast cancer) or surgery, it should be given for 5 years or until the tumor comes back, whichever is first. It can also be given as a sequential treatment; 2 years of Stimu-Let Tablet followed by 3 years of tamoxifen.
If I am taking irbesartan to control my blood pressure, can I take Stimu-Let Tablet?
Yes, you can take irbesartan and Stimu-Let Tablet together. However, be careful and keep a regular check on your blood pressure since Stimu-Let Tablet may increase your blood pressure. Consult your doctor in case you have problems controlling your blood pressure.
Does Stimu-Let Tablet affect vision?
Although it is very uncommon, Stimu-Let Tablet may cause a cataract. So, if you experience blurred vision or eye irritation, consult your doctor immediately.
My friend who is taking Stimu-Let Tablet often sweats a lot. Is it because of Stimu-Let Tablet?
This could be a sign of hot flushes which is a very common side effect of Stimu-Let Tablet. It happens due to decreased estrogen levels. The frequency of hot flushes reduces once your body adjusts to Stimu-Let Tablet. However, in some people, the flushes and sweats may continue during the treatment and stop a few months after the treatment finishes. You can consult your doctor who will provide you a remedy if it is very bothersome.
What are the serious side effects of Stimu-Let Tablet?
The serious side effects do not occur in everyone and very few people experience them. The serious side effects of Stimu-Let Tablet include stroke, angina, heart attack, blood clotting, cataract, osteoporosis, and severe skin reactions.
