These were recommended to me following hysterectomy in January this year, I had been taking them for a week when I had my 2 year check, I saw a nurse practitioner who advised I was best not to take anything herbal as I don’t know what’s in them and how they may affect the Tamoxifen. I have now stopped but suffering quite badly so just wondered if anyone is taking both without any problems please? Xx

hi
i was told by the macmillan nurse to avoid supplements. plant phytoestrogens although not proved conclusive as bad, as i am ER+ i would rather not add more into my body, just in case it turns out that they are bad.
i changed the time i took my tamoxifen and the hot flushes are more manageable now.

I read this about sage …Sage is known for its minty flavor and pungent aroma but turns out it can pack in a punch against cancer. This herb has been found to induce cell death and reduce growth in melanoma cells, colon carcinoma cells, and hepatoma cells.4Sage basically has many bioactive compounds with beneficial effects. Ursolic acid, a compound present in it, has been found to be particularly effective at fighting cancer. There is mixed answers with this herb
Please be aware if you have high blood pressure youre advised not to take sage.
