How Can Low Libido Be Treated?

I am 71 years old and have had a complete hysterectomy. I have absolutely no sex drive. My doctor has explained that hormone therapy has side effect such as heart attacks, breast cancer etc after the age of 65. I have a younger husband and this is getting to be a problem for me. What options do I have?

If you have no history of breast cancer or ovary cancer than it is of no consequence using hormonal therapy medication. As for heart attacks it is a protective measure using hormonal treatment. I think you have to use hormonal therapy.
