My wife has been through a hysterectomy and endometrial cancer radiotherapy and I am worried about intimacy going forward 

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I’m Anne, one of the Community Champions here on the Online Community and, although I had a different type of cancer to your wife, I know how a cancer diagnosis can impact partners as well.

    The online community is divided into different support groups and I can see that you've already found and joined the womb cancer group where you'll connect directly with others who have the same type of cancer as your wife. 

    When you feel ready, you can start a new post there in the same way as you did here and join in with existing conversations by clicking on 'reply'.

    It would be great if you could put something about your wife's diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
