Don’t be afraid to discuss your sexual concerns with your doctor and care team. This might feel awkward, but trust us, they have heard it all before. If you have questions about how your treatment will impact your sex life, what to expect in the future, or when it’s safe to start having sex again, bring it up with your doctor. Here are some reasons to talk to your doctor about your sexual health:

  • Cannot create or sustain an erection
  • Lack of feeling in genital areas
  • Vaginal dryness
  • Pain with intercourse
  • Unable to orgasm

Your health care team can prescribe and recommend medications, products, tools, and therapies to help you.
