Psychosocial problems among younger women with breast cancer
Abstract
Women diagnosed with breast cancer at a younger age often have concerns less frequently faced by older women. A cross‐sectional survey of 204 women diagnosed with breast cancer at age 50 or younger within the past 3.5 years was conducted to examine issues particularly faced by younger women. The questionnaire included standardized measures of problems related to breast cancer (CARES) and open‐ended questions asking women about their experiences. Concerns about premature menopause and pregnancy related issues, among those women for whom these issues were applicable, had the highest ratings as problems experienced by women since their diagnosis. Among all women, sexual functioning was a greater problem than lack of sexual interest, and body image was of moderate concern. Overall, relationships with partners were not a problem. In multivariate analyses, having a mastectomy was associated with greater problems with body image and interest in sex. Chemotherapy was associated with greater sexual dysfunction. Responses to open‐ended questions were particularly informative and reflected the diversity of responses women have to breast cancer. Findings reinforce the need to develop interventions to help women deal with premature menopause and problems with sexual functioning following chemotherapy. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
