Did you gain weight on Tamoxifen? What helps?

I took both tamoxifen for 5 years and anastrazole for 10. I never gained weight until a few years later when I was in a horrible accident, so I don’t think this will be universal.
There are a ton of variables in people, topping the list is genetics and daily life.
Then there is other medical conditions, jobs, family obligations etc, etc.
Are you concerned about weight gain, or gained weight on one of these drugs?

I've been on Tamoxifen since June 24th, no weight gain. But dr wants me ro change to AI soon because I'm having my ovaries out next week. I'm nervous to switch to AI, weigh gain being one of several reasons.
