Family physicians can be instrumental in helping their patients adjust to changes in sexuality subsequent to treatment for cancer, only if they break the silence surrounding sexuality. Cancer, like other illnesses, can interfere with intimate relationships. Many patients want to discuss changes in their sexuality with their family physician. However, few will raise the issue themselves but wait for their physician to broach the subject. This article summarises the P-LI-SS-IT Model which provides practical guidance on assessing the sexual concerns of cancer patients and on developing helpful interventions.
家庭医生若能打破围绕性话题的沉默，就能在帮助癌症患者适应治疗后性行为变化方面发挥重要作用。癌症和其他疾病一样，会干扰亲密关系。许多患者希望与家庭医生讨论他们性行为的变化。然而，很少有人会主动提出这个问题，而是等待医生提及这个话题。本文总结了P-LI-SS-IT模型，该模型为评估癌症患者的性问题和制定有益的干预措施提供了实用指导。
