Read our Breast Cancer research guide →This research study is looking at how cancer treatments affect sexual health and the ability to have children in women with breast cancer or lymphoma. Researchers will ask you to complete surveys about your sexual function and wellbeing at different points in time. You'll also have the option to provide blood samples so doctors can check how the treatment affects your ovaries and fertility—but this is completely optional.
Cancer treatments can have side effects on sexual function and fertility, but doctors don't fully understand how common these problems are, how severe they become, or which women are at highest risk. This study aims to fill that gap so future patients can get better support and information.

You would fill out detailed questionnaires about your sexual health and wellbeing at multiple visits over time. Study staff can conduct these surveys by phone or mail if you can't attend in person. If you choose to participate in the optional blood work, you'll provide samples to help doctors assess how treatment is affecting your fertility. The whole process is designed to fit around your cancer treatment schedule.
