Sexual health is an important aspect of human life, and cancer does not (and should not) change that. Data suggest that issues related to sexual function are quite common among women treated for cancer. However, clinicians often spend little to no time on the topic.

Finally, we provide an overview of sexual health therapeutics available in the United States and in Europe.
