Tamoxifen and periods
Hi lovely ladies can anybody tell me if their periods were affected by taking
tamoxifen
. The oncologist said I'd still have them but this last 3 months have been barely there - not that I'm complaining! I seem to have all the symptoms but no loss. Started on it December 2015.

Sex steroid induced apoptosis as a rational strategy to treat anti-hormone resistant breast and prostate cancer.
Despite major initial therapeutic success, the strategies of long term anti-hormone therapies with either
tamoxifen
or aromatase inhibitors (AI) or antiandrogens or abiraterone for breast and prostate cancer, respectively, eventually lead to a significant proportion of anti-hormone resistant or stimulated

Change in appetite
I would expect this to happen if I'd had chemo but I only had surgery and radio plus
tamoxifen
. Initially I put it down to stress then when I started radio I couldn't stand the taste of tea (and I'm a tea belly!). I have completely gone off sweet things and chocolate (not that I'm complaining!).

New beginning
I think it will be a slow process as still on
tamoxifen
which doesn't help (or am I just looking for excuses again!) . Be nice to chat to anyone else in this situation

Review day
She did however give me food for thought and asked if I'd considered having my ovaries out to further reduce the risk then I can change from the
tamoxifen
to something else as the facial rash I've had since starting it is spreading to my neck.

Tamoxifen
Just wondering about other people's experience with
tamoxifen
. Â I'm 37 & started on it in Dec. Â Don't have any major side effects. Â My oncologist said it wouldn't affect my fertility but by now my periods have almost completely disappeared. Â Has this happened anyone else?

, levo and hydrocroxy... not wanting to just throw a load of pills down my neck, with there own side effects. I supplement with vits and need to try much harder with diet.

Shocked by BH test results...advice please.
I also supplement Jarrow b12 5000 mg, omega  3 1000mg, vit d3 5000, selenium 200mg, zinc 15mg, evening primrose 1000mg and
tamoxifen
20mg which is due to cancer twice in the last 7 years. I'm 43 and I must admit. . Â I'm a bit worried about what I've done to myself here.

Further to the conversation a couple of weeks ago regarding Tamaxofen and being pre or post menopausal, I've been to GP today, she thinks I've the through the menopause, come out the other side, and there's no point in having a blood to determine my hormone levels, so I stay on the Tamaxofen until I
