Cancer Survivorship Program: August & September

Pelvic floor disorders (PFDs) are common in cancer patients, particularly those with gynecological, prostate, or colorectal cancers, due to treatments like surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy causing muscle damage, nerve damage, or scarring. Symptoms include incontinence, pain, and sexual dysfunction. Specialized pelvic floor physical therapy is highly effective at improving quality of life by rebuilding muscle strength, reducing pain, and restoring function.

Cancer treatments may have many side effects. Side effects can be different for each person, and for different medicines and kinds of treatment. Treatment may impact your nutritional status, cause fatigue, and reduce your level of energy, induce anxiety, and stress, and impact your overall wellbeing. There are effective ways to manage side effects and improve your quality of life. 

You’re finishing cancer treatment, now what? It’s important to know what the next steps are when you finish your treatment. You’ll need information on managing any ongoing side effects, what screening tests you should have, when you’ll see your doctors, reducing stress and finding your new normal.
