How Can I Save My Sex Life After Breast Cancer? | Dr. Regula Burki

Описание: In this episode I SHARE GOOD NEWS regarding vaginal estrogen use in breast cancer survivors, based on a new study from the March 2025 issue of the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Common symptoms of urogenital atrophy, which results from estrogen loss and can be exacerbated by cancer treatments. The study reveals that low-dose vaginal estrogen does not increase breast cancer recurrence or mortality, offering solace to patients and physicians. I cannot stress importance of being informed, and being open discussions with your doctors. You must take charge and become and advocate for your own health.
