Tamoxifen And Weight Gain Posted: 11-15-03 16:59pm
Just wondering how many have gained weight
while taking tamoxifen. I have been on
it for 1 year now and I have put on about
15 pounds. It happened so fast, I was
always someone that could eat whatever and
not worry about weight gain, so this is
new.
Besides tamoxifen I have not had a period
since my second round of chemo in april of
2002 and I am 45 now. So I guess it
could be these three factors.
My real question is, is anyone done with 5
years of tamoxifen that gained weight
while on it, if so I you lost any since
you have completed the tamoxifen?
