FREE ISSUE:
Women's Sexual Health Journal on Cancer and Sexuality
Sexuality issues and cancer are rarely discussed. Since October is breast cancer month, we felt this was the perfect opportunity to share this issue with the public and our non-members to help our readers understand that cancer can impact sexuality and intimacy and that there are solutions. Click here.
In this issue we have two articles by psychotherapists who work with women with cancer, Sage Bolte, MSW, LCSW, OSW-C and Peggy Lipford McKeal, Ph.D. LMHC., and we have an article by our founder and breast cancer survivor, Lisa Martinez.
If you have comments about this issue, please feel free to e-mail us at info@twshf.org. We would love to hear from you.
The Women's Sexual Health Journal invites you to submit articles, letters, and meeting notices that may be of interest to our readers. The articles may be scientific or research based, case studies, or your day-to-day experience with women's sexual health concerns from your professional perspective.
We also invite women to submit their personal stories relating to their sexual health journey. Successes and frustrations in finding care, treatment and an empathetic provider may be addressed in these stories. The personal stories will be published anonymously unless permission is given to do so otherwise.
The Women's Sexual Health Foundation encourages women to educate themselves regarding sexual health, so they can make smart choices.
