Flat Chat - no breast reconstruction
PRIVATE GROUP. This group is a safe space for those considering, actively choosing or not have had a choice to stay flat after a mastectomy. Whether personal decision or one shaped by circumstance, you're invited to connect and share your experience and images with others on a similar path. Information shared is based on personal experience and not intended as medical advice; always consult your healthcare team for guidance. ⚠️CONTENT WARNING⚠️Posts may include images of surgical outcomes, which some may find distressing. If you need support, please contact the BCNA Helpline—we’re here for you.Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)
This group is for people diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), a subtype that affects around 15% of those with early breast cancer. While we share personal experiences, please remember that the information in this group is not medical advice—always speak with your healthcare team for guidance.Let's talk: vaginas, menopause & me
PRIVATE GROUP. This group is a safe, supportive space to talk about sexual health and emotional wellbeing during and after breast cancer. We discuss topics like menopause, vaginal dryness, pain during sex, UTIs, and changes in libido, and share ideas and products that may help. Whether you're navigating intimacy with a partner or reconnecting with yourself, you're not alone here. This is a place for open, respectful conversations and shared understanding.LGBTIQ+ & breast cancer
We recognise that the breast cancer experience can be uniquely complex for LGBTIQ+ individuals. From navigating healthcare systems that may not always feel inclusive, to dealing with assumptions about gender, bodies, relationships, and identity—this group exists to honour and support those experiences in a safe, affirming environment.Connecting rural, regional & remote areas
We understand that living outside major cities can bring unique challenges when it comes to accessing care, support, and information. From long travel distances to limited local services, these experiences can feel isolating—but you're not alone. This is a space to connect with others who truly understand what it’s like to face breast cancer while living regionally or remotely. Share stories, ask questions, and support one another through the frustrations and the wins - this group is here for you.
