I didn't want to take tamoxofin for my breast cancer because of the side effects. I am 80. i don't want hot flashes and hair loss. He now has me on raloxifine HCL. It actually strengthens bones. I read it can also cause hair loss. I am trying 1/2 tab a day instead of a whole one. I don't know if a little is better than none.

Hello Raebaby I am in the same shoes as you are. What is your stage or kind of cancer. Started tamoxifen 1/2 tablets even without consulting with dr. Stringing the bones is okay, but what about heart, blood clocks, etc. something else
Please let me know how you feel. Thank you
