What this trial studies

This observational study examines the sexual health of female patients treated for non-metastatic breast cancer who are being followed up at the Observatory of Fertility at Jeanne de Flandre Hospital. Participants will complete repeated anonymous self-administered questionnaires to assess how various factors, including oncology treatments, self-esteem, body image, anxiety, and depression, influence their sexual health and quality of life. The study aims to gather insights into the impact of breast cancer treatment on sexual health and marital satisfaction over time.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are females aged 18 and older in a relationship, diagnosed with invasive breast cancer, and undergoing chemotherapy.

Not a fit: Patients who are not in a relationship or those with metastatic breast cancer may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights that improve the sexual health and quality of life for breast cancer survivors.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have explored sexual health in cancer survivors, indicating that this area of research is important but may still have untested aspects.
