This page is set up to be a resource for cancer patients and physicians. The content will provide information on sexual health. The resources include video interviews conducted for the DiepCFoundation educational channel, the DiepCJourney podcast channel, and other links that can be easily accessed and explored.
Sexual health is a topic not frequently discussed for a variety of reasons. The intention of this page is to ease the time constraints physicians can experience in consult and provide an immediate resource they can share with patients after breast cancer treatment or breast surgery of any kind that can include lumpectomy, mastectomy, or breast reconstruction.
The resources on this page will provide education to ease the conversation with the patients’ physicians and their healthcare team. Having a shared decision-making conversation requires preparation on the part of the physician and patient. The interviews conducted are from well-respected individuals in their individual fields. They have published papers, conducted research, and presented at national and international conferences on the topic.
