“I was told that there was a group out there for gay men living with prostate cancer and there are only two groups in the country apparently. There’s one in Manchester and one in New Cross (London). This group has saved me…” Tim, 59, Gay youtu.be/PlUnxsU-_BU #ProstateCancer

"it is essential that prostate-cancer treatment is tailored to each person’s needs. Equitable care does not mean treating everyone the same" @OwProstateCa @prostatenews nature.com/articles/d4158…

@SamTalksSex @KarenPhysio @Jodivine @jodivineuk @OwProstateCa The feeling is mutual, Sam! @OwProstateCa is one hell of a support group. Respectful, helpful, compassionate. A credit to the international #LGBTQ community 👏🏽 #prostatecancer #incontinence #erectiledysfunction

Seeking participants for the final phase of our study on gay and bisexual men with prostate cancer. This phase aims to validate our tool for assessing sexual quality of life in gay and bisexual prostate cancer patients. #ProstateCancer #ADT #prostatectomy #radiationtherapy

How does androgen deprivation affect sleep measures in prostate cancer patients? Here, using actigraphy, we found that patients on ADT sleep longer, have more fragmented sleep, and have longer daytime naps. #ProstateCancer #ADT #AndrogenDeprivationTherapy

Great to join the @TEMF2018 group today to talk about prostate cancer and hear black men’s experiences. Black Afro-Caribbean men are twice as likely to be affected and we really want to get their views in our @ProstateUK research on sexual side effects 👉 bit.ly/3KNpEms

Brilliant to talk to everyone at @LGBT_Walnut 🏳️‍🌈 today and hear so many people’s experience of prostate cancer and sexual problems. Thanks to everyone in the group for having me there. Really keen to hear more LGBT+ views in our @ProstateUK survey here 👉 bit.ly/3KNpEms

Rosser said: "The biggest thing is gay men just don't want to be made invisible. They don't want people to assume that they're straight, and that's the biggest problem that they come in and they end up feeling devalued, ignored and that no one's listened to their experience."

Important work from Nurse Researcher @EmmaHainsworth5 exploring the intersection of HIV and cancer through patient interviews.

Recruiting for a new study exploring experiences, needs, & preferences of #LGBT+ people living with #dementia. Please share with relevant contacts and get in touch for more info. #hpm #hapm
