“…The same findings that female patients were more likely to be suffering from changes in appearance were found in our study. In addition, many previous studies discussed the sexual dysfunction of patients with breast cancer and gynecological cancers [ 28 ], and our study also revealed that female patients were more likely to be suffering from sexuality issues than were male patients. However, the novelty of this study is that it clarified the association of family problems with female patients and the association of spiritual pain with male patients.…”

“…Sexual dysfunction is one of the most common and distressing consequences of cancer treatment [ 27 ] and this often occurs in patients with breast cancer and gynecological cancers [ 28 ]. The distress of sexuality issues consists of the complicated combination of physical effects of cancer treatment, women’s intrapsychic experiences of changes to sexuality and her relationship with her partner, and the role of gendered discourse [ 29 ].…”

BackgroundCancer care is currently the most important medical issue in Japan. Total pain of cancer patients consists of a combination of four factors: physical, psychological, social distress, and spiritual pain. Previous studies showed female cancer patients ask for more psychological support and seem to suffer different types of distress compared with male patients, for example, appearance-related symptoms. However, other factors of cancer distress related to gender have not been defined comprehensively. The aim of this study is to clarify the gender differences in cancer distress types in order to elucidate the measures that should be taken in Japan to improve the quality of whole cancer care based on gender-based medicine.MethodsThe data of new patients who had visited the psycho-oncology outpatient service of Kinki University Hospital during the period of May 2013 to October 2015 were collected. Demographic factors and all assessed items were extracted from the patients’ medical charts retrospectively. Based on an inquiry of cancer patients in 2010, each item representing the four factors of “total pain” of cancer patients was chosen, i.e., physical distress (pain, changes in appearance), psychological distress (anxiety, depression), social distress (family problems, job-related problems), and spiritual pain; together with sexuality issues, and answers were analyzed. Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) was used for the assessment of psychological distress. Chi-square test and Fisher’s exact test were performed for gender differences in the cancer distress types. Pearson’s analysis and multiple logistic regression analysis were performed for the association of gender with each item.ResultsThe data of 101 cancer patients were analyzed and there were more female patients than male patients (female: male ratio = 71:30). Female cancer patients were more likely to suffer from psycho-social issues such as changes in appearance, family problems and sexuality issues than male patients, and male patients were more likely to have spiritual pain.ConclusionsThere were gender differences in the distress types of cancer patients. In order to improve the quality of whole cancer care, more intensive intervention by medical professionals and social support is needed from the viewpoint of gender-based medicine and psycho-oncology.

“…I n Canada, gynecologic cancers (e.g., ovarian cancer, uterine cancer) account for 10.8% of all women's cancers (Comité consultatif des statistiques canadiennes sur le cancer/Canadian Cancer Statistics Advisory Committee, 2019). These types of cancer and the associated treatments (e.g., radiation therapy, chemotherapy, surgery) can lead to sexual disorders of a physical nature (e.g., dyspareunia, loss of libido) or a psychosocial nature (e.g., changes in body image, relationship conflicts) (Vanlerenberghe et al, 2015). Sexual health, the state of biopsychosocial well-being, as defined by the World Health Organization (2020), can therefore be threatened both during and after cancer.…”

Despite the desire of gynecologic oncology (GO) patients to speak openly about their sexual health experience with nurses, nurses often feel ill equipped to engage in these conversations. There are very few educational interventions available to GO nurses to improve sexual health communication with patients. The purpose of this narrative review is to identify and summarize existing educational interventions in this field. A literature search conducted in three databases, for the years 2010 through 2020, identified 11 papers. The results of the review indicate a mix of nurse training modalities and explore the potential for improving this communication. Existing training programs vary in terms of mode of delivery (online or in person), length, type of instructor, learning strategies and themes addressed. Overall, however, the results show a general lack of sexual health training for nurses caring for GO patients.

Malgré le désir de la clientèle gynéco-oncologique (GO) de parler ouvertement de son expérience de santé sexuelle avec les infirmières, ces dernières souvent ne se sentent pas assez outillées pour entamer ces conversations. Peu d’interventions éducationnelles existent afin d’améliorer la communication en santé sexuelle auprès des patientes pour les infirmières œuvrant aux soins GO. Cette revue narrative vise à synthétiser les différentes interventions éducationnelles disponibles dans ce contexte. Une recherche documentaire effectuée de 2010 à 2020 dans trois bases de données a permis de cibler 11 articles. Les résultats soulignent la variété des modalités de formations infirmières et leur potentiel d’améliorer cette communication. Qu’elles soient en ligne ou en présentiel, ces formations diffèrent entre autres au niveau de la durée, du type de formateur, des stratégies d’apprentissage et des thèmes abordés. Toutefois, les résultats soulignent le manque de formation en santé sexuelle dédiée aux infirmières œuvrant aux soins GO.
