Talking about intimacy after a breast cancer diagnosis
We know how daunting intimacy can be after a breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, and we feel that there's not enough people talking openly about the ways any kind of intimacy (we don't just mean sex itself!) can be affected.
Our LoveRose Talks theme this week has been intimacy after a breast cancer diagnosis. We have teamed up with the lovely Isabel White, a psychosexual therapist and cancer care nurse, to discuss the issues we might face alone or in a relationship, and some practical solutions that we can take to feel more in control and confident about intimacy in our lives.
The notes below support the videos above. Feel free to contact us with any questions you have- we will do our best to get them answered or put you in touch with the right source of information!
