Abstract
The current study examined sexual activity, intimacy, and romantic loneliness in female cancer survivors (n=103). The results of a hierarchical linear regression indicated that increased time since diagnosis as well as lower emotional intimacy, sexual pleasure, and orgasm/completion were associated with lower levels of romantic loneliness.
