tamoxifen and atypical intraductal hyperplasia

Recently diagnosed with severely atypical intraductal hyperplasia suspicious for DCIS on core needle biopsy. Excision biopsy then showed mild atypical intraductal hyperplasia with clear margins. Oncologist recommended Tamoxifen daily x 5 years for prophylaxis and mammogram every 6 months. I'm 51 y.o and otherwise very healthy/active. I'm concerned of Tamoxifen risks vs benefits. Can't find any recent info/studies on this. Does anyone have any info?
