yes, tamoxifen can cause mood swings. especially it causes menopausal symptoms- such as hot flushes, dryness of vagina, lack of sexual drive. we cannot reverse these symptoms, as u cannot replace these medicines with any other. but she can be counselled for any other presence of depression or anxiety with her that can be counselled and may improve the situations
