    Ok, You have given me great information. I have been thru Chemo, I have been thru raiation. My stage 1, infiltrating Ductle Carconoma has been removed. Besides the Tamoxifen, which I have not started yet. Literally just got done with radiation. So, now what? Does my life change radically from here on out? When do I get to go back to being just me? I did not like the answers I have heard so far.

    Yes, this is a real problem for me along with bladder infections on tamoxifen. My onc wants me to go to the gyn to see about using a very low dose estrogen cream 3 times a week to see if the irritations stop.

My main question is --If i use it vaginally will it harm my husband during sexual activity? Any info would be helpful Surely im not the only person with this problem Thank you
