Hi
Does anyone know why you cannot get pregnant whilst on tamoxifen. What are the risks to the baby etc. I have never been told.
Thanks

Hi Christine,
I think either the staff on the helpline or the Ask the Nurse email service may be able to help you with this one. The helpline number is 0808 800 6000, open 9 - 5 weekdays and 9 - 2 Saturdays.
Here’s the link for the Ask the Nurse service: breastcancercare.org.uk/content.php?page_id=119
Hope they can help you with this one. Kind regards,
Jo, Facilitator
