Summary
This study looks at whether starting hormone therapy every other day for one month, then switching to daily, helps women with early breast cancer take their medication as prescribed. About 240 participants will be randomly assigned to either the standard daily dose or the gradual dosing schedule. The goal is to see if the new approach improves tolerability and long-term adherence.
