Pausing tamoxifen for pregnancy?

Young Cancer Patients

Learning that I cannot get pregnant for at least another 2-5 years because of the tamoxifen has been the most devastating news for me (second only to the cancer diagnosis). My husband and I were planning to start trying during this spring, and now the future I dreamed about for so long is impossible. I can’t even begin to process so many more years without the life I’ve always wanted. The POSITIVE trial gives me so much hope but also makes me nervous, has anyone paused tamoxifen to get pregnant and if so, can you share your experience?
