@KymB
in response to your Question 1
Did any member/s of your
medical team (GP, Surgeon, Oncologist, Breast Care Nurse, Psychologist, Other)
PRO-ACTIVELY approach the topic of sexual health with you?
for me personally the focus only ever was on the Breast Cancer and the best treatment surgically. Once that part was complete it then moved to Oncology. Being Hormone Receptor Positive the question was then around gynaecology health not sexual well being or otherwise. I was then sent to a Gynaecology Oncologist because as time went on tamoxifen brought on tamoxifen induced gynaecology problems which involved 2 surgeries over a 2 year period.
My opinion only, sexual well being has not been mentioned; I assume if I brought it up it would be a conversation, then again what is the saying assumption is the mother of all stuff ups!
I agree with @zoffiel google research (not always true and correct but sometimes from here our only resource) seems to treat sexual well being as emotional for female and intertwined with menopause and the fact that not all sail through menopause smoothly, but actual sexual function or dysfunction a real problem for men but not defined as such for women.
Interesting topic and best wishes with your presentation
Take care
