Fingernail issue

Has anyone else had issues with their fingernails lifting from the nail beds whilst on Exemestane?
I’ve been on this AI for about 5 weeks and never had an issue with my nails before, I’ve had gel nails for about 6yrs with no problems.
I didn’t have chemo just radiotherapy and I’m 2yrs cancer free.

I am taking two AdCal3 tablets a day and if anything my nails are harder than they used to beI wonder whether this is because nails are formed in some way from calcium supplements if your oestrogen is lowered.

@Pebbles51 yes. I am experiencing the same problem. I started letroxoke in October 2022 and abemaciclib in June 2023. All my finger nails are lifting , detaching. I cut it short as possible otherwise it will catch which happened once and resulted in bleeding. Am feeling so distressed. Does anyone know if any remedy for this. Thanks to all.
