periods after chemo??
Hi,
I did 18 weeks of paclitaxel last July to November and my periods just pretty much stopped altogether. I had all the symptoms of chemopause/menopause - terrible night sweats, hot flushes, etc.,...
hi Cat i feel for u its bad enough going through menopause a few times but i would let your oncologist know even if u just ph their rooms & tell their receptionist. they may well have tested ur blood hormone levels automatically but your gp can do that. But i do know your oncologist needs to know because some of the medications are for pre-menopausal some for post-menopausal it may effect your outcome You definitely have been through the wars i hope you can get it sorted , Cheers ;)
