Getting diagnosed with cancer and going through treatment can affect your intimacy and sex life. But not everyone is affected in the same way. Various factors play a role, such as the extent of cancer, the treatment(s) you are undergoing, the emotional strain, whether or not you are in a relationship, and if so, how good that relationship is, your age, physical condition, how important sexuality is to you and within your relationship…

In this brochure, we highlight some effects that are specific to the treatment of gynaecological cancer and that (can) have an impact on your sexuality.
