Women who have had treatment for breast cancer should know that they can have a normal quality of life after treatment is over. Many studies have proven this. But women who have had chemo may notice a slight decrease in certain areas of function.
Some studies suggest that younger women tend to have more problems with the stresses of breast cancer and its treatment. Some feel isolated. Also, chemo may cause early menopause which needs to be managed. There may be sexual problems, too. These women might benefit from counseling and support groups directed at younger breast cancer survivors.
