Can I Take Graviola With Tamoxifen?
UpdatedI am diagnosed with breast cancer stage 2 six months ago and had bilateral mastectomy and after that prescribed with Taomxifen-Nolvadex. I am taking two tablets per day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, meaning 20mg per day. My CA is positive in progesteron and estrogen. My brother bought me Graviola as he was told that is a good one for cancer, but I am afraid to have it with tamoxifen, If someone knows anything please tell me. And my periods did not stop yet I have them on monthly basis and my gynecologist now insists to remove both ovaries and uterus.

Hello I'm looking for that information too. Maybe we can talk about your experience. My wife is the patient and I have been researching for a lot.
Unfortunately, over the counter herbs, and supplements have not been tested for interactions with prescription medications, nor have they been proven to actually help with any given medical condition, thus, I can only advise that you speak to your respective doctors, before adding it to your therapy regimen.
