ABSTRACT
Women are conventionally advised to stop tamoxifen before attempting pregnancy. The risks of congenital malformations or late teratogenic manifestations in adulthood are unknown. Following an informed discussion about the uncertainties of tamoxifen exposure on pregnancy women should be offered the choice whether to continue or stop tamoxifen before attempting pregnancy. An unexpected pregnancy in a women taking tamoxifen could continue if the pregnant woman accepts the possibility of a teratogenic effect that tamoxifen could have on the fetus.
