I am in tears. Had a great night with my hubby but just can't get that "feeling". I think this issue is one of the hardest I have dealt with during this BC journey. So tired of not feeling normal about anything!  Please tell me that  "this too shall pass". I can't get over the guilt of it not feeling the same. I cry for my DH and for me ---Sooo Sad. I keep thinking he must miss it --I know I do. What can I do? I feel so bad but can't help it--just don't feel like I am the same woman.

    I have no libido and its like the sahara desert down below.....I saw my onc on Thursday and he suggested a low dose of testosteron (5mg) to help with libido...still waiting for the pharmacy to fill the Rx...onc said to try it for a month and see if it helps...if it does, stay on it, if not stop....My husband hurts when I say that I couldn't care if I never had sex again, but he knows what I mean...its not him, but with no libido its hard to feel amorous or to feel like having sex...but  actually that statement is not true...I want sex...I want to be intimate with my husband....we've been married 33 years....at 54, I'm too young to give up sex forever!!!!  I'm hoping the testosterone works.....will let you know...I have the e-string...onc approved me using it as says it does not get into the system.....it helps a little with vaginal dryness....he also said that that using a estrogen creme twice a week will not cause harm, but he didn't write an Rx for it....thats for next visit in 3 months....((((((((HUGS)))))))))))))
