Brief Answer:
Due to hormone blockers.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

You are having multiple symptoms. The vaginal dryness is causing pain during sex. Using a good lubricant or local estrogen cream can help.

The hormone blockers that you are taking is causing the breast pain and vaginal dryness. These contribute to fatigue and mood changes also.

You can start with a multivitamin and get serum vitamin D3 levels checked. In case there is a deficiency, then having proper supplements will help.

Hope I have answered your query.
