Is there a sexual life after treatment of cancer?

Luca Incrocci

Abstract

Cancer has surpassed heart disease as the leading cause of death in most western countries. The occurrence of cancer is increasing due to the growth and aging of the population, and to well-known risk factors (smoking, overweight, physical inactivity, urbanization) (1). Although there is a clear decrease in overall cancer mortality rates, mainly in developed countries, cancer still remains a major public health problem.
