My period came on June 24. I was so heavy I could only stay inside. During this time I was out of state on vacation. Upon my return I went to see my oncologist to ensure everything was find. I had not been sexually active for over 5 years. I had sex in July about 2 weeks after my period came on. Is it possible I could be pregnant? I am having symptoms of being .pregnant
Sorry to hear about your problem. Periods do tend to re-start after completion of tamoxifen though initially they are irregular. There is a chance that you can get pregnant if you had your periods once. You should get a urine pregnancy test done to rule out pregnancy.
Hoping for the best.
