Hi, I've just started tamoxifen, I'm a couple of years younger and hadn't gone through menopause, I had chemo start of the year so who knows if that has done the trick..I had hot flashes from the chemo that have continued on the tamoxifen..but honestly could be the chemo, the tamoxifen or menopause causing them...I was terrified of taking tamoxifen and was expecting all sorts of horrible things to come from it but 4 weeks in and besides the hot flashes and a few moments where my brain forgets what it's doing it's been smooth sailing so fingers crossed it will stay that way..hopefully you will sail through too..All the bestxx
