Hi everyone, I’m new to this group but am hoping that someone else may be experiencing what I am and have some advice. I am thankfully in remission from grade 3 HER2 positive breast cancer, I have been on Anastrazole for just over a year now and I am finding that the combination of menopause and drugs have completely wiped out my sex drive. My husband is incredibly supportive but also somewhat frustrated and I desperately want to get back to some element of normal. Has anyone else experienced the same and found ways to get through it? Any help or advise would be really appreciated, thank you.
Hi Carrie1 my cancer is different to yours, mine is endometrial stromal sarcoma, but I am on anastrozole and zoledex combined with a hysterectomy i have gone through medically induced menopause. I will send you a friend request, if you would like to accept, I can talk privately with you about some issues.
