Thanks you Heidi for sharing your experience with tamoxifen. I am too afraid to refuse tamoxifen because I fear breast cancer more(since I am having it NOW) than the potential of womb cancer or menopause. True everywomen who currently premenopause will eventually be post menopause but personally I do not want to reach menopause faster.
Tamoxifen effect of quickening menopause is not a problem/issue for those who already had menopause. The other LONG RUN side effects of tamoxifen worry me. Tamoxifen is usually taken for 5 LONG YEARS.
Is there anyone out there who have complete their 5 years with tamoxifen? Please share with me/us your experience.
