Interesting subject for most of us. As you stated, A.A., the use of chemotherapy puts us firmly into menopause. I was there already, but libido was still fine, fortunately. Aftermore chemo and drugs, the desire is less.
I have noticed a number of offerings in the way of testosterone/progesterone/ and other hormonal creams in the health food stores and at my local Seattle Super Supplements. Also many on line. With such a bewildering array of compounds, and having already been metastatic, I have shied away from them and not even asked my med onc about them. I have a great physician's assistant and maybe will approach her on this subject.
This is probably an important thing to consider, but I am just so busy with all kinds of things, that it get pushed into the far corners of my mind!
