The Impact of Cancer on Sexual Function and How to Help Patients

We are continuing our discussion on mental health issues on sexual health. We are talking to Dr. Kristen Carpenter, an associate professor in the Departments of Psychiatry and Behavioral Health, Psychology, and Obstetrics and Gynecology. She is explaining the impact of serious illnesses, like cancer, on mental and sexual health. She outlines a good evaluation for the non-sexual medicine clinician and how to get them appropriate help. She uses an article she co-authored which is a must-read listed in the show notes.
