Tamoxifen
A question for anyone who knows. Did tamoxifen make your hair thin a lot? I’m in the 2nd year of taking it and I’ve really lost a lot of hair.

Tamoxifen & the Mirena coil
Hi everyone I wonder if any of you have or had oestrogen positive breast cancer and also have a coil fitted. My oncologist told me it was safe to leave the coil in place whilst taking tamoxifen as it may help with some of the side effects. Whilst talking to a friend who has the same type of cancer as

Hot flushes and infertility.. Any advice?
Hi everyone, I’ve been quiet for some time. I’ve just found out my FET failed today, we had a 6 day embryo (hatching- grade 5AB). I’ll try and keep it brief, we started our journey nearly 6 years ago. I didn’t ovulate regularly and started on clomid which I reacted too so after 3 months transferred to

Serous Low Grade Ovarian Carcinoma -treatment options
Hello everyone, I was diagnosed with serous low grade ovarian carcinoma stage 3C December 2017 and had a radical hysterectomy with debulking. I had researched treatment options and learned that chemo has little effect on the type of of cancer that I have, consequently I did not take chemo. My oncologist

Tamoxifen
Hi I have been asked if I would be interested in doing a trial. I take Ruxilitinib for MF and the trial is to take Tamoxifen as well. I have read all the information I have been given and although I understand that I might not be accepted due to lots of reasons (I hear they are quite strict) I wondered

Tamoxifen - crazy mood swings - needing advice!
I've been on Tamoxifen for about 15 months, and though physically I don't have side effects, the chemical effect on my mood is really horrible. Things have got really bad, and I feel very out of control emotionally, and disregulated. I feel irritable, low, unpredictable and angry a lot of the time.

Reconstruction after implant infection.
Hello All I was diagnosed with grade 1 ER pos. and HER2 neg. BC in April 2018. I had surgery in July for a left breast reduction and right breast mastectomy with an implant. The surgeons performed lymph nodes and nipple biopsy to test to see if the cancer had spread and I was relieved to hear that

DHEA?
Well I was the lowest I've been so far last week. Crumpled on kitchen floor sobbing episode.

In April 2000 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I had a mastectomy, chemo, and five years each of Tamoxifen and Femara. Everything was fine until February 2018, when a biopsy of my underarm lymph nodes confirmed the recurrence and spread on the same side as before. I am presently taking Ibrance and

Tamoxifen
I started in May of 2017. Take it at night. I also take Nupron injections so it’s hard to tell which drug is creating the symptoms. I have gained weight and my knee and ankle joints hurt a lot. I’ve started taking glucosamine for the joint pain and I have felt a slight improvement. The weight gain is

The influence of thyroid disorders on bone density and biochemical markers of bone metabolism
Yes - far too few subjects.
[i]data in the field of hypothyroidism (HT) are missing[/i]
- And just who is to blame? It certainly doesn't appear to be members of TUK forum who have been talking about this for the best part of a decade. There are two factors that could result in medics thinking

Tamoxifen
I’m about to start taking Tamoxifen, which I’m dreading, and wondered if any of you lovely ladies could share your experiences with this drug. How quickly did you start to experience side effects? What side effects did you have? How did you manage them? Is there a best time to take the drug, morning

Eyebrows...Will they ever come back?😑
Hi All Hope we are all as well as can be. I am just wondering whether anyone else, years after chemo, still hasn't seen the return of their eyebrows? I finished chemo November 2015, I'm on tamoxifen so maybe this is inhibiting growth. The brows are the only hair not to return after treatment. There are

Scan results after Ibrance.
Well, 4 months on Ibrance. Unfortunately it did not work for me. Ibrance was my first line defense for MBC. Prior was about 18 months of tamoxifen for stage 2. I’m 47. I was 44 w stage 2; 46 w MBC. The MBC was originally localized to my bones and scalp. Results showed new spots on liver. Too
