The purpose of this study is to explore the lived experiences, emotional challenges, and coping processes related to changes in sexual health and intimacy among women diagnosed with breast cancer. Insights gained from participants' personal experiences will provide a deeper understanding of patients' informational, emotional, and relational support needs, which will inform the development of an AI-driven digital support platform aimed at delivering personalized education, facilitating communication, and improving overall quality of life among women living with and beyond breast cancer in Florida.
The study involves focus group discussions conducted via Zoom and online questionnaires administered to breast cancer patients and survivors.
