Moobs growing with hormone treatment. What would anyone recommend for this?

  • Hello  

    I never bothered and have a fine "pair" but I am on enough medication already.

    So once they have grown you are stuck with them. The answer is to speak to your GP or Oncology team - the answer is a prescription for Tamoxifen - details here:

    Tamoxifen

    I hope this helps.

    Best wishes - Brian.

  • I'm taking tamoxifen to control the moobs, I've only started taking it after 2 years of HT, it doesn't remove what is there, but prevents further growth.

Help us do whatever it takes, because we’ve never been needed more.
