Dear VIVI84,   There can be effects on sexuality related to chemotherapy for breast cancer.  We are referring you to a website:  www.chemocare.com.  Within the website you can look up the chemotherapy medications you are receiving to read about side effects etc.  Also there is a section on sexuality under managing side effects section that may be helpful to you as well.

Hi Viv - I had a total hysterectomy 14 yrs ago due to fibroids. Got bc in 2003, had chemo, rads and now on Arimidex. I also am on weekly chemo (methotrexate) for Crohn's. Guess these drugs have done a number with my libido, which is zilch.....doesn't seem to affect my husband though as he is 79 yrs now. I am 63 yrs young.  We still have a loving life without sex. We have
