NCT ID NCT06458049
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two brief online educational programs for young women (ages 19-49) who have finished cancer treatment and are dealing with sexual health issues. Participants join video sessions and report changes in sexual function and emotional well-being. The goal is to find which program better helps women manage these changes and improve their quality of life.
