Overview
What is Exemestane?
Steroidal suicide AI used clinically for ER+ breast cancer and off-label in TRT/AAS contexts to control aromatization. Differs from anastrozole by irreversible binding (longer functional half-life despite shorter pharmacokinetic half-life) and mild intrinsic androgenicity. Not a standalone biohacking tool.
