Sex, Intimacy & Cancer (Part 1)

Let’s talk about sex, baby!

Where do we begin to navigate this minefield of taboo subjects? Is it possible to maintain or regain a fulfilling sex life during cancer treatment and beyond?

If any topic calls for an expert, this is the one! Fortunately, we have an expert with us for a special 2-part series.

Dr. Sharon Bober is director of the Sexual Health Program at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, Massachusetts. The program provides education, consultation, and counseling for patients and their partners who have experienced changes in sexual health during and after cancer treatment.

About the Podcast

Man Up to Cancer

The show built for men facing cancer, and the people who love us!

I'm your host, Trevor Maxwell. I'm a stage IV colon cancer survivor, and I've got a message for other men: You don't have to go through cancer alone.

On the Man Up to Cancer podcast, you can expect raw, unfiltered conversations about men, cancer, and our experiences. My guests will be other patients, survivors, advocates, health experts, and friends from #cancerland.

We'll tackle a wide range of topics including cancer screenings, chemo, friendship, scars, sex and intimacy, grief, and the physical suck-fest of cancer. But .. PLOT TWIST.. we're also going to joke, laugh, and have fun.
