I also did a round of Tamoxifen, most RE's try it as an alternitive to Clomid. I guess it doesn't effect CM as much. As for the warnings, I think them mean over long term use. You are probably just taking it for a few days. Tamoxifen is a drug used to treat Breast Cancer. I would "Google" it if you have major concerns, and talk to your doctor. Again I was also put on it, so it is used widely, and in my case, it was covered under my insurance because it's not considered a drug for IF.

Beware though, if you look it up online, you may find alot of warning and side effects. Remember if your only taking it for a few days a cycle, should be okay.

Oh and do you have the wicked "hot flashes". I think they were worse with Tamox, than with Clomid.
Mind you, it's been a long time since I took Clomid. I guess my memory will be refreshed in the next couple of weeks.

Hope I helped. Good luck with your upcoming cycle!

Hugs,
