Recovering from breast cancer is one thing that they need to fight. Because it is reasonable if there is a price to be sacrificed, one of which is the declining quality of sexual life in a few years during the treatment.

These problems commonly faced by cancer patients within 2 years after diagnosis. Among them include the inability to achieve satisfaction and reduced sexual activity in general.

This was revealed in a study at Monash University, published online in the Journal of Sexual Medicine 23 September 2010.


The study observed 994 women with breast cancer in Australia who meet several criteria. Among non widow, did not have any active disease, had a pair and less than 70 years old.
