I am suffering terribly with dry cracked skin, hair loss, dry eyes, sore gums, broken nails and vaginal dryness after taking Tamoxifen for 15 months. Has anyone else experienced this and found any solution? Living in hope! 

  • Hi, the side effects can be super tough, I feel for you.  I use Replens for vaginal dryness and my GP has prescribed it for me and it does help.  I have to admit I haven't experienced the other challenges you mention.   Don't forget the lovely team at Macmillan have experts for you to chat to and you can call them on 0800 808 0000 as they might be able to offer some further advice.
