Pregnancy after 5 years of tamoxifen, when is it safe?

Hello,
4.5 years after dx and keen to start a family! I finish my tamoxifen in June 2013 after 5 years of taking it. I have been told by my consultant it takes two months to come out of system but oncologist says 3 months before we should start trying!
If anyone knows please can you let me know, as I’d like to have it clear in my mind!!
Many thanks for your time x

Hi mairead

Just to remind you that our helpliners are on hand if you feel it would help to talk to them about this, lines are open 9-5 weekdays and 10-2 Sat on 0808 800 6000

The BCC publication ‘Fertility issues and brest cancer treatment’ contains a small amount of information on this:
