A member asked:
Is it ok(normal) to have diagnosis of fragments of proliferative endometrium while on tamoxifen.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: It's common to have this diagnosis while on tamoxifen. I'm sure your physician is monitoring your endometrial lining via biopsy or D&C to make sure that you aren't at increased risk of endometrial hyperplasia or pre-cancer of the endometrium. Proliferative endometrium describes the 'stage' of the endometrium when it was biopsied. Proliferative is first part of cycle, dominated by estrogen.
