How to stop taking Femara

Patient's question:

Because of irregular menstruation, I took Ulesse for three months. After taking it, my hormone levels were found to be very low, and the doctor then prescribed Femoston. But after taking it, my weight increased rapidly. Currently, I have just finished taking 13 red pills. May I stop taking the medication?

Doctor's answer:

The dosage instructions for Femenal: Take 1 tablet daily, with a course of 28 days. For the first 14 days, take 1 white tablet daily (containing 1 mg of estradiol). For the next 14 days, take 1 gray tablet daily (containing 1 mg of estradiol and 10 mg of dydrogesterone). After completing a 28-day course, continue the next course starting from the 29th day. Take 1 tablet daily in the order indicated on the packaging. Take the medication continuously without interruption. When initiating and maintaining treatment for menopause-related symptoms, use the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration. Treatment for menopause-related symptoms typically starts with Femenal (Estradiol Tablets/Estradiol/Dydrogesterone Tablets) at a dose of 1/10. The dose may be adjusted according to individual needs based on clinical efficacy.
