question from a user

I have a weird sunburn, sensitive skin, almost like pins and needles feeling over my arms, neck and back going on. Is this from the anastrozole that I take every so often or from the carrier oil from the test?

AlphaMD's Answer

That side effect you describe is more consistent with anastrozole. It’s not likely from the carrier oil without any associated hives.
