It's not a happy outcome especially for a younger woman, but to be fair, the side effect was noted in the written information on my medication I was given; my GP, oncologist and surgeon have all suggested possible treatments (but also mentioned the possible side effects of these treatments too); and in my case the atrophy may be compounded by ageing. An oncologist is, quite reasonably, focussed on trying to rid you of cancer. Unfortunately many GPs don't know much about cancer treatment side effects, refer you back to the oncologist and round we go. I found discussion with a specialist gynaecologist and my surgeon as useful as anything.
