I want to take some vitamins but without oestrogen in, can anyone tell me what to look out for on the label so I don’t accidentally take them?
Thanks

hi, i only take cod liver oil with vitamins in, spoke to the pharmasist at the time a he said they were ok. if you have any doubts show them what you would like and they will tell you if they are ok.

Hi small1,
I take a variety of supplements here’s a link to my blog site where I’ve listed all the supplements I take. fightingthebeastwithin.blogspot.co.uk/p/supplement-list.html, this list was compiled after extensive research over a year, I have checked all of them out with my oncologist and he has said they were fine to take with the prescribed medication I am taking which include tamoxifen, clonidine and herceptin. My advice would be to take a list of the supplements you want to take and ask your oncologist whether or not they are fine to take with the conventional medication you are already on.
Hope this helps
