Summary: This study aims to explore and compare the experiences, knowledge, and preferences of gynaecological cancer patients and clinicians in relation to screening and management of pelvic floor dysfunction. The findings suggest a perceived need for improvement in screening and management of pelvic floor symptoms in this population. Despite the barriers and differences in perception, there are opportunities to enhance how pelvic floor symptoms can be screened and managed in gynaecological cancer survivors.

Qualitative exploration of sexual life among breast cancer survivors at reproductive age

Maryam Maleki et al.

Summary: This qualitative study aimed to explore sexual life and its related issues among breast cancer survivors at reproductive age in Iran. The main theme identified was 'unfulfilled sexual life', with four subthemes including 'undesirable sexual function', 'context-based beliefs', 'unmet information and supportive needs', and 'emotional crisis'. The research findings emphasize the importance of healthcare providers in identifying and addressing the sexual and marriage issues faced by breast cancer survivors, and suggest the establishment of sexual health counseling units to improve long-term sexual satisfaction for this vulnerable group.
