520 _aSexual function is often a taboo subject for men, especially after a life-threatening cancer diagnosis; however, sexuality is an integral part of the human experience, even if a man has a serious illness. In her new book, Man Cancer Sex, Dr. Anne Katz describes the changes that many men with cancer experience in regard to their sexuality and sexual functioning and offers practical and compassionate advice on how to deal with these changes. Dr. Katz begins with a nuts-and-bolts discussion about "how things work" and why sexuality is important for a man as an individual and as part of a couple. Each chapter describes the experience of men with different types of cancer and problems they may face, including pain, loss of libido, erectile dysfunction, fertility issues, and more. The book offers effective strategies for coping with sexual hurdles during cancer treatment and beyond, as well as methods to enhance communication between men with cancer and their partners and resources for further information and support. Modern medicine has increased the survival rates for men with cancer, and, for many patients, the memory of cancer and its treatments will fade. Sexuality, though, remains an important part of life, and Man Cancer Sex gives you the information and tools you need to reclaim your sex life after the challenges of cancer.
