How long after you finished chemo for breast cancer till your periods are regular?
Last Febuary (2006) I finished chemo for breast cancer I took the following chemos:
Brand Generic
Ellence epirubicin
Cytoxan cyclophosphamide
Adrucil 5-Fu, fluorouracil
Taxotere docetaxel
Xeloda capecitabine
Platinol cisplatin
Vepecid,VP16 etoposide
Avastin bevacizumab
How long might it take for my cycles to become regular?
As stated, everyone is different…
I had bc 2x and the first time I had
Cytoxin
Oh geesh, I forget the name now..Its also known as the RED DEVIL
and something else mixed in there..
It was 9 mos
The 2nd time I had
Xeloda and something else (sorry…) can’t remember and it was like 8 mos.

hope you are doing okay..I am so far
I’m not sure the only reason I’m replying is that i had breast cancer and only had radiotherapy, i was then put on tamoxifen and my periods have stopped altogether, i think the best thing to do is ask your surgeon or oncologist next time you have an appointment
EVERYONE IS AN INDIVIDUAL BUT I SPEAK FOR MYSELF…..MY PERIOD NEVER CAME BACK AND IT’S BEEN THREE YEARS SINCE THE ND OF CHEMO.
