Ask your partner:
- How do you feel about our sexual relationship now? What do you value most?
- Do you have any fears or anxieties about changes?
- Are you open to making adjustments in our sexual routines?
- How will you feel if I can no longer get erections like I used to?
- Do you think our relationship roles will change? How does that make you feel?
- If I think sex therapy will help us, will you go with me?
Ask yourself:
- How might cancer treatment affect my masculinity? Will I feel like “less of a man” if I can’t get a firm erection? Will I feel inadequate if I can’t satisfy my partner?
- What is most important to me in my sexual relationships? Do I think sex equals penetration? Am I willing to try new things? Will kissing, cuddling, and oral sex be enough for my partner and me?
- Will I be willing to discuss sexual issues and anxieties with my doctor and my partner?
- Will I be open to seeing a sex therapist? Should I bring my partner with me?
