Which Is The Right Drug To Reduce My Chances Of Getting Breast Cancer?

I was diagnosed with atypical lobular hyperplasia and my surgeon suggested I see a medical oncologist. I had a lumpectomy. The oncologist suggested I take one of these three drugs, tamoxefen, raloxe fene, or Aromastin, to reduce my chances of getting breast cancer. How do I choose the right drug for me?

These drugs have value only if the lump has been biopsied and tested positive for estrogen and progestrogen receptors.
