I am a woman of 61, over menapause and have taken femara for 4 years,,,,, 1 year and 6 months to go says my oncol. I suffered the same side effects and still act over 100 when I get up in the morning but try to overlook this. I exercise a lot and drink lots of water which I think helps, (could be mind control)....

I was wondering if anyone at my age level on femara has suffered any discomfort with sex? Hey, we are all normal.

Also if anyone is looking for financial help go to PATIENT ADVOCATE FOUNDATION, they can help some and have helped me a great deal.

Thanks, Juliejo

I am also 61, over menopause, and curently undergoing chemotherapy(ACT). I am on the taxol now. I have experienced discomfort with sex almost from the start of chemo. I have used Replens and a lubricator, but finally just stopped trying due to the pain. Hey - there is just so pain I am willing to subject mysef to at this time. Hang in there and let me know if you discover anything helpful, please!
