Sexual Embodiment and Sexual Renegotiation Post-Cancer for LGBTQ People with a Cervix.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) people face unique challenges in the context of cancer due to cis-heterocentric constructions of sexuality in oncological care. This paper explores the impacts of these challenges for LGBTQ people with a cervix, examining embodied sexual changes and sexual renegotiation during and after cancer, and the implications for LGBTQ people's access to relevant, tailored cancer information and support. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 57 LGBTQ people with a cervix with cancer and 14 intimate partners, representing a range of cancer types and stages.
