Purpose: Management of female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is vital for women with breast cancer due to the devastating consequences, which include marital disharmony and reduced quality of life. We explore healthcare providers' (HCPs) perceptions and experiences in managing FSD for women living with breast cancer using a phenomenological approach.

Methods: This qualitative study was conducted using a face-to-face interview method with HCPs from two tertiary hospitals in North East Malaysia.
