Anastrazole has killed my sex drive
Hi there. I am on Anastrozole and I have NO sex drive or urges left whatsoever. This is really unusual for me and def happened after I started taking the meds. I was on Tamoxifen for 5 years and relieved to come off it but as I had HR+ BC badly I was told I had to stay on meds for 10 years. I am now
