Determinants and timing of lifestyle changes in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors: A longitudinal qualitative study
Lifestyle support should consider psychological and physical effects of breast cancer diagnosis and treatment, which may hinder some PMBC survivors' ability to make favorable lifestyle choices. Our results suggest that HCPs should offer ongoing individualized lifestyle support throughout the care continuum to meet the varied needs of PMBC survivors.
