Being diagnosed with gynecological or breast cancer implies confronting the organic and psychological consequences of an illness that affects parts of the body which are full of sexual significance. Together with the actual process of the cancer, the medical and surgical treatments received can cause severe consequences on the patients��? sexuality, including body image and self-esteem. It is the duty of the medical professionals to include a sexual assessment of oncology patients as an integral part of the medical evaluation. The aim of this talk is to deal with the different physical and psychological issues in oncological patients��? sexuality and their correct management.
