A program for
Cancer and Non-Cancer Patients
Your entire health is important to us, and that includes your sexual health. Evidence suggests that sexual satisfaction is positively associated with improved health outcomes later in life.
Men commonly experience sexual health changes during their lifetime. These may include a decrease in libido (desire to engage in sexual activity), or a change in the ability to physically participate in sexual activities. The changes may be the result of age, or they could be caused by medications or a chronic illness such as diabetes or cancer. The Men's Sexual Health Program at Baptist MD Anderson Cancer Center is here to help, offering resources and treatment options for both cancer and non-cancer patients.
