Does anyone take femal?!
It has vit e ,I keep reading that you can’t take it with tamoxifen,
I was recommended it by menapuse clinic ,
It seems every supplement recommended for menapause after breast cancer can interact with meds ,or affect hormone.
Surly their must be something out their that is actually not dangerous,
Can’t do accupuncture, or take anti depressant,
Hi Be
Yes when it comes to supplements I’ve found you need to be wary and do a lot of your own research. I was taking a supplement with it in then in another thread the Nurses told someone it was on the list of things that aren’t recommended . When I checked on the Memorial Sloan Kettering site it said that taking it as a supplement is associated with a slight risk of recurrence for some cancers including BC. I now take a similar supplement that doesn’t have vitamin E .

Ah yes this is what I keep reading it’s found to cause recurrence,.
Thanks for responding I actually thought I was just being a difficult overcautious anxious patient.
What supplement that is similar do you do take ?
Unfortunately the one I was taking and the one I’ve started taking aren’t for menopause - they are to support my vision . I can’t really recommend anything but maybe the Nurse might know of something ?
