Tamoxifen

i have been taking tamoxifen for 2.5 years,I have just had pelvic ultrasound outside and internal,it’s results came back that uterus is enlarged because of thickened lining? I have to go see gynaecologist, have others had this problem if so what treatment did you have to get?

    Hi @Milly21, I had the same issue with Tamoxifen - it causes this in some women. Talk to your specialist about whether you want to continue. I’m sure your gynaecologist will help you. 

     I had hyperplasia and a couple of other issues, including heavy bleeding. I had a few hysteroscopies and d&cs before having ablation. They don’t like doing abkations because they can’t check the lining once it’s burnt. It depends on how old you are.They encouraged me to have a hysterectomy and go back on tamoxifen. It’s a stressful time. It’s good that you are seeing a gynaecologist. All the best.
