Abstract

We collaborated with illustrator Jules van Beurden to visually capture the themes of our paper.The header reflects the core of our research, illustrating how post-cancer sexual health care primarily addresses physiological issues.The drawing, showing a person lying in a pool of chemicals (symbolising both cancer treatment and pharmacological approaches to sexual health), highlights the disconnect between the complex nature of the problem (spanning psychological, social, cultural, and physical dimensions) and the narrow focus of current treatments on the physical aspect.Our work advocates for a holistic approach that integrates these broader dimensions into post-cancer sexual health care.
