This medication works by lowering the level of estrogen in menopausal women, thereby, reducing the risk of breast cancer. It judiciously blocks aromatase. Aromatase allows estrogen to circulate by converting adrenally-formulated androstenedione to estrone. Therefore, its prevention decreases the chances of tumour development.
