Hi guys,
I was diagnosed with grade2 invasive ductal carcinoma in October 2022 (2 weeks before my 34th birthday).
I have recently finished 2 weeks of radiotherapy and been put on tamoxifen for 10 years.
my specialist has said I can come of the tamoxifen in 3 years to try for a baby. Me and my partner had been trying to conceive for 2 years and sadly it happened just before I was due to start radiotherapy so it was unviable.
they have not stated what the risks would be and I’m very unsure if it’s a good idea as I don’t want to risk the cancer coming back. Has anyone been through the break to conceive
thank you x
Hi Anns88
Welcome to the forum and sorry to hear that you were diagnosed with breast cancer. While I don't have an answer for you I thought I'd reply to you to welcome you to the community and to move you to the top of the discussion. There is a breast cancer forum for people under the age of 50 so it might be a good idea to join that forum as well. Here's the link: (+) Breast cancer for the under-50s forum - Macmillan Online Community.. You could also if you want ring the Macmillan helpline and someone may be able to help you. The number is 0808 808 00 00.
