Filter by:Sexual dysfunction is commonly reported post cancer treatments. Sexual desire and body image are interrelated. Indeed, sexual wellbeing can be affected by diagnosis, medication and cancer treatments which can damage body tissues such as the vagina or penis owing to radiation therapy, or insufficient lubrication caused by chemotherapy. Additionally, feeling sore, exhausted, anxious, depressed and 'not in the mood' further contribute to changes in sexual desire Very few evidence-based online interventions have been developed to address sexual difficulties post cancer treatments. This extends to well-being, sexual self efficacy and quality of life. It is imperative that mindful compassion interventions are based on a behavioural taxonomy to support the reliability in the delivery of these interventions. Indeed, this study has set out to identify and describe the key components and behaviour change techniques as part of the online intervention. These have been mapped to a behaviour change taxonomy with the view of supporting standardisation for future trial implementation. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of an online mindful-compassion intervention using the 3-system model of emotions based on the behavioural taxonomy among a post cancer treatment group with the view of improving quality of life. The study intends to provide preliminary estimates of pre-post intervention on a waitlist controlled randomised controlled trial looking at sexual self-efficacy, well-being, sexual desire, mindfulness and self-compassion. Quantitatively, the research is structured so that participants will be randomised to either the active experimental or delayed group. This intervention will be weekly for approximately 1 to 2 hours over 4 weeks. This A follow-up at 12 weeks will be taken to determine the sustainability of this intervention.
This placebo-controlled, double-blind crossover study is to evaluate the GLP-1 analogue dulaglutide regarding changes in sexuality, the mood and the reproductive axis in healthy men.
