Tamoxifen is an anti-estrogen drug used to prevent the growth of ER+ breast cancer. It is typically used in pre-menopausal women, and while it may cause menopause to start earlier than it would have otherwise, that isn't typical. In most women, the ovaries work normally and their periods will continue as before. In some women who were already close to menopause, menstrual periods will stop. Tamoxifen raises the risk of endometrial and uterine cancer, so if you suddenly start to bleed after years of not bleeding, you should go see your physician and have an exam.
