Tamoxifen and haemorrhoids.

Hello I wondered if anyone has had **bleep** bleeding while on Tamoxifen and feel that it is a side effect. 

I have just started bleeding after being on Tamoxifen for 6 months. 

Whether it is related I don't know.  The doctor is treating me for haemorrhoids.  Early days.

    Hi Spursy​ as we wait for others to respond with their experience, I just wanted to reassure you that you’ve done the right thing in seeing your doctor. It makes sense that this would feel a bit worrying, especially when something new comes up while you’re on Tamoxifen. I hope the below info helps, and please reach out at any time as you navigate this.

    Hopefully, the treatment helps settle things, but do keep your doctor in the loop if it continues or changes. ❤️
