tamoxifen

Hello Ladies,

I was wondering has any body experienced migranes, irregular periods and stomach cramps whilst on tamoxifen??

I am having all of the above and cannot narrow it down. I have had a pelvic ultrasound and nothing is showing up. I have a referral to go see a gyno but really do not want to so was hoping that somebody may be able to shed som light on what is happening to my body...

Other than that life is grand, and i can not wait till sunday to go out paddling xx

    Hi Danielle,

     

    I've been on Tamoxifan snce August 2010, my periods were very regular from January 2011 up until September 2011 - they have since stopped.  I've had scans that were all clear and Hormone blood test which were normal for my age (Just turned 30). 

    I'm putting it down to the Tamoxifan as the cause.

    I also suffered severe nausea and headaches when i first started - was taking the tablets in the morning.  Changed to night time and havn't had a problem since.

    Hope this helps

    Casey xx
