I am 37yr. old and my ER score was 8 and PR score 8. With tamoxifen for 7 months and cont. to have very frequent periods. Have had 2 uterine biopsy's both negative, but thick wall. Ovaries working overtime. They would like to do a total hysterectomy, bilat. oophorectomy. I have had a hard time with the tamoxifen, terrible mood swings.....all over the board. Has anyone felt better after a oophorectomy/hysterectomy after having a very hard time on tamoxifen? I am very worried I will feel worse. There was talk of Lupron, but with U/S results and ovaries working so hard, and high ER, PR scores the recomend this. Anyone else?
