Psychosexual development, sexual functioning and sexual satisfaction in long‐term childhood cancer survivors: DCCSS‐LATER 2 sexuality substudy

Childhood cancer may negatively impact childhood cancer survivors' (CCS) sexuality. However, this is an understudied research area. We aimed to describe the psychosexual development, sexual functioning and sexual satisfaction of CCS, and identify determinants for these outcomes. Secondarily, we compared the outcomes of a subsample of emerging adult CCS to the Dutch general population.
