Sexual Health in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Survivors
Satisfaction with sex and interest in sex, in contrast to sexual function domains, were associated with QoL and psychological distress in HSCT survivors. These findings underscore that supportive care interventions targeting satisfaction with and interest in sex may serve an important role in improving the QoL and psychological health in this population. Future longitudinal studies should examine causal pathways.
