Hi all

I was hoping for some advice. I am on tamoxifen and have been since oct 08. I have been told i cannot get pregnant which hurts like hell. We dont have any kids and i had a miscarriage a couple of months before being diagnosed. My periods came back and have been some what regular (28 day cycle). I was due on 2.7.09 if you go by the 28 day cycle but i still have not come on. I am getting scared etc if i am pregnant. Finding it hard to approach my other half so thought of you lovely ladies to guide me.

I am 39 yrs old and desparate for a baby.
