Hello!
I am currently 56. I had a lumpectomy (lymph nodes were clear) almost 5 years ago and have been on Tamoxifen since then. Before starting Tamoxifen my periods had become horribly heavy and close together so I assume I was in Perimenopause. After starting Tamoxifen my periods became gradually lighter and further apart, and I had my last one exactly two years ago. For the last 5 days I have had some very minor spotting on and off. I saw my GP the very day it started. He examined my vaginal tract/cervix and said it all looked fine, but has referred me under the 2 week cancer protocol (still waiting). A blood test 6 weeks ago for something else, but that among other things looked for tumour markers, came back as "unremarkable". How concerned should I be given that Tamoxifen increases the risk of uterine cancer?
