Unless there is some kind of pain or you glow at night, don't worry about it. but Try Vitamin C therapy. A few years ago a cancer researcher came out with a paper saying that the best cancer and infection fighter as yet found was Interferon, but, at the time, it cost $15,000 a gram. The good part was that Interferon was a product of the natural breakdown of Vitamin C in your system. Shortly after that paper came out the FDA tried to make Vit C by prescription only. Guess why? The FDA says that the RDA for Vit C is 64 mg a day, just enough to prevent scurvy. Linus Pauling, who got a Nobel Prize for his work with Vit C and a second Nobel Prize for organic chemistry, said 1000 mg a day as a minimum and 2000 mg a day if you are sick. On a personal note, I was sick twice a year, for 2 weeks at a time, for 20 years, and was flat on my back for at least a week each time. To this day the doctors have no idea what the problem was. After I gave up on the doctors I tried Vit C. I took enough to keep from being sick and just below too much to get diarrhea. It followed a bell curve over 2 weeks with a peak at 40,000 mg a day – about 300,000 over the 2 weeks. I was not sick for those 2 weeks and after a couple of years of that I have not been sick since. I did not dissolve my kidneys, as some doctors said would happen. I did not get any calcium build up or stones and did not dissolve my cones or solidify my joints. Try it, but drink a lot of water – Vit C is a natural diuretic.

I am so glad that you are doing well! It is perfectly understandable to be concerned about intercourse, especially when you were treated for a cancer in that area and the radiation can cause scarring etc. Having a frank conversation about your concerns with your partner is a good place to start. I would use plenty of lube and take it slow. The longer you get out from your diagnosis and treatment, you will gain confidence that your cancer has been taken care of. This will help with the anxiety as well. Take care!

Why is it necessary to have sex. I know of many that are living just fine without having any sexual relations at all, some are widows others are single . By all means take your time, give yourself all the time you need to get over the treatments you have had, and when and if you feel comfortable about it, that is time enough. One can live a perfectly normal life without having sex.

I can empathize....hubby had radiation for prostate CA and he's afraid, also. The doc says "not to worry", use of a condom is strongly recommended. Just make sure both you and your partner are ready and don't feel bad if either of you feel the need to cut the act short.
Best of luck to you!
