I was a few months shy of 40 and premenopausal when I was diagnosed 3 years ago. I too was told by 3 drs that because of the ER+. PR+, Her2+ that the best treatment was ovarian suppression and an AI (arimadex or femara). Because we were done having children, I chose to have my ovaries out (very easy). Although my libido has decreased, we still have an active sex life. I believe it's all about positive mind set and communication with your husband. And in defense of drs; my onc and ob/gyn are always concerned and ready to make changes/additions/suggestions if I feel any quality of life issue is at risk, including sex life!
