In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez, is joined by Drs. Julia Pugh and Chloe Logue to discuss psychosexual morbidity in women with ovarian cancer.   Dr. Julia Pugh is a Gynaecology Clinical Nurse Specialist and psychosexual therapist based at The Christie Hospital in Manchester, UK.  Dr. Pugh completed her Advanced Nursing Practice Masters at the University of Manchester and offers support for psychosexual concerns of men and women with cancer.   Dr. Chloe Logue is a practicing junior doctor in Manchester. She completed her academic foundation at the Christie Cancer Hospital in Gynaecological Oncology, supervised by Prof Gordon Jayson.                Highlights:- 75% of women with ovarian cancer experience psychosexual morbidity, exceeding published general population values.- Key potential risk factors are: younger age, premenopausal status at diagnosis, extensive surgery, more courses of chemotherapy, cardiovascular co-morbidities and anxiety and depression.- Common presenting symptoms include: vaginal dryness (81-87%) and pain (77%), amongst reduced sexual desire and activity, impaired orgasm, diminished perceived body image and reduced partner intimacy.- The review identified that psychosexual issues are not routinely discussed nor adequately managed by clinicians. Psychosexual problems remain a priority for many women with ovarian cancer, many symptoms could be addressed by discussing their concerns and simple physical measures.

Psychosexual Morbidity in Women with Ovarian Cancer with Julia Pugh and Chloe Logue

Ruth Dearnley

Hannah Flint

A recent report into human trafficking revealed that the problem is significantly worse than previously thought. In fact, it is believed that in the UK alone, every large town and city will have trafficked people in it who are effectively enslaved, and many of us are unwittingly coming into contact with trafficked people every day. So we speak with three people - Ruth Dearnley, Julia Pugh and Hannah Flint - committed to finding signs of hope in this seemingly bleak situation.  For more information about the work they do, and the difference you can make, check out the Stop the Traffik website. Interview starts at 8m 58s.   If you want more from Nomad, check out our website, and follow us on Facebook and twitter If you're looking for other people to share this journey with, then register on our Listener Map, and see if any other nomads are in your area.  Nomad can only keep going because a small group of faithful listeners help us pay the bills. If you want to join them, you can make regular donations at Patreon or a one-off or regular donation through PayPal, the links to which you can find on our support page. As a thank you, you'll have access to Nomad Book Club, our online community The Beloved Listener Lounge, and Nomad Devotionals, where we're attempting to reconstruct worship through a creative mix of songs, music, readings, prayers and guest reflections.
