Hello

Post breast cancer (chemo, right breast mastectomy, radiotherapy, no reconstruction etc)

Am on daily Tamoxifen and daily morning Iasibon (for bone strength).

Since really getting into the groove of daily tamoxifen over the last year I have put on about a stone and a half.

Where before breast cancer I ate relatively healthily but never craved food, I now regularly think about food.  I do not binge eat but I eat much more regularly than I did.

Is Tamoxifen associated with weight gain?

Does Tamoxifen contain steriods or steroid-type effects?

I have seen studies saying tamoxifen is not associated with weight gain but is that right?

Either way, what should I do to lose weight?  I dont feel overweight exactly but I am the heaviest I have ever been and it has only happened since I started on tamoxifen.
