Common Tamoxifen Side Effects

- 💊 Let’s talk about common tamoxifen side effects. Tamoxifen is used for hormone receptor positive breast cancer or DCIs to reduce the risk of recurrence (and sometimes used for high risk conditions such as LCIS or atypical hyperplasia to reduce breast cancer risk).
In this video, I go over the following possible side effects: hot flashes/night sweats 🥵, fatigue, sleep changes, mood changes, sexual health changes, bone density, blood clots, stroke, endometrial cancer and other uterine changes, weight changes, vision changes, fatty liver, risk of birth defects and more.
🚨 This list does not mean you will experience these side effects (and some are very rare) but it’s important to be informed.
⭐️ Take a listen and let me know what has been your #tamoxifen experience or what questions you have! A lot of people learn from other’s experiences in the comments so please share.

Tamoxifin attock on stomoch ?
Started 18 days ago. A few hot flashes here and there but nothing else. I tolerated chemo and radiation extremely well tho. I had gastric bypass 9 mos before my bc diag and recovered from that w/o any issues as well.
I go into any medical treatments/procedures expecting the BEST.
Thanks doctor, my friend is in her 30s on tamoxifen 20mg and is swollen, suffering from lymphodema what can she do about it please? her oncologist is not reducing the dose to 10mg to lower the side effect.
I had intractable diarrhea and severe abdominal cramping!!!
I'm a physician, the side effects were shockingly bad, even for babytam. I could barely use the ATM. How do women actually take this? I clearly wouldn't be able to work as a physician, and I am barely able to complete my ADLs
Just had a blood work done my alt and ast wbc syrocket. My blood work was fine last year and this year they’re sending me to get an ultrasound on my liver due to the blood results. I’ve been taking this for my breast cancer that I had taken care of two years ago. Is this a side effect of the medication high blood readings?
I experienced incontinence on tamoxifen. Have you heard of this before?
My mom started taking tamoxifen almost a week ago. She is having problems with breathing light cough. Feels heavy on chest is it the side effects too?? What can be done to prevent??
How about the terrible rash on the arms. I have been on this drug for two months and the rash is not easily controlled and hard to live with. I take the 20mg tablet. I am 78 years old. .
