I don't know
Dear Candace,
I don't know what you can do tonight ... others may know. But it is a good thing to call your ob/gyn. One of the side effects of Tamoxifen is dryness and bleeding. They'll need to check you out ASAP. Keep us posted!

Do they use general anesthesia for this procedure? Is it the same m.o. As surgery?0 -
Have doc check it out first
Here are the common GYN adverse effects for tamoxifen listed on epocrates:
vaginal discharge
menstrual irregularities
vaginal bleeding
vaginal dryness
vulvar pruritus (itching)
But since uterine cancer can be a very serious adverse effect of tamoxifen, you need to have your GYN check this out. If the cause is vaginal (as opposed to uterine) bleeding, there are many vaginal lubricants that may help reduce friction and reduce this symptom. You might try a long acting one like Replens every few days and then a short acting one before intercourse (ky, astroglide, etc.).0 -
