Hi, all

As you probably know, cyproterone acetate is very expensive, and depo provera is significantly less expensive. However, I want to minimize feminization no matter what. Does anybody have any experience taking depo provera with tamoxifen or know if it is safe or effective to take?

Best,

J.

I regularly took tamoxifen when I was on CA. Whether or not it was effective in preventing unwanted breast growth, I don't know but it didn't seem to harm me and wasn't very expensive. I now have some growth, but not much and I can live with it.

Hi Modernist, Although I have never used depo provera, my understanding of Tamoxifen is that it is a very well tolerated med. In other words, it does not much interact with other drugs, and rarely does it cause bad side effects on patients taking it.
