Tamoxifen + irregular periods.

Hi all,

wondering if any has advice/having a similar experience. I have been on Tamoxifen for almost 2.5 years now and also in perimenopause. Since I’ve started Tamoxifen, periods have been extremely irregular (at least 5 months between a period), and when I do get my period it is so heavy, I can barely leave the house. I have been to my GP and he suggested I take Tranexamic acid to try and reduce the bleeding but that doesn’t seem to be having much effect. He has suggested I could have a mirena inserted, but need to check with oncologist (had lobular invasive carcinoma - ER positive).

hoping someone else may have had a similar experience. 

thanks xx

 

p.s have already been checked for endo + fibroids.
