Purpose of review: Although healthcare providers are increasingly interested in addressing their female patient's sexual wellbeing in a holistic fashion, most do not receive training in how to conceptualize the complex interactions between mind, body and spirit that drive health and wellness, let alone how to apply empirical data in any of these dimensions to their individual patients. Here, we present a simple mind-body-spirit model, grounded in an integrative medicine approach, to help translate research on sexual functioning and satisfaction into a shared decision-making plan for the management and enhancement of women's sexual wellness.
Recent findings: In considering the dimensions of physical and behavioral health, spirituality and sensuality, physicians can help women orient to the ways in which their sexual healthcare can address their core values and connection to others, which in turn can improve sexual satisfaction. The application of the model is outlined in a case study.
Summary: Too often female sexual wellbeing is not discussed in the medical setting and this mind-body-spirit model is a tool that health care providers could use address this important aspect of well-being.

Purpose of review: Until recently, sexual and gender minority (SGM) people have been largely invisible in health care and health services research. However, understanding the needs and experiences of SGM cancer patients is critical to providing high-quality care, including needs and experiences related to sexual health. In this narrative review, we highlight that the literature on sexual health for SGM people with cancer is lacking, summarize existing literature on disparities affecting SGM patients with cancer, and discuss factors associated with these disparities. We conclude with recommendations and suggestions for future research in this area.
Recent findings: Emerging evidence suggests that SGM people are at a higher risk for breast, cervical, endometrial, HPV-related, and lung cancers, as well as poor cancer outcomes, due to behavioral risk factors and health care system factors (e.g. lower access to health care insurance, discrimination in non-affirming care settings, negative health care interactions with providers). Additional research suggests that lack of clear guidelines for cancer screening in SGM patients, particularly for transgender and gender diverse patients, negatively impacts cancer screening uptake among SGM people. A growing number of studies have suggested greater sexual challenges following cancer treatment for sexual minority men with prostate cancer, while other studies highlight positive outcomes for sexual minority women following cancer treatment, such as benefit finding and resilience. Research on transgender and gender diverse patients is lacking.
Summary: Collection of sexual orientation and gender identity data across clinical enterprises and population-based surveys, mandatory health care provider training on cultural and clinical competency with SGM patients, and additional research inclusive of and focused on SGM cancer patients are key strategies to advance evidence-based clinical cancer care for diverse SGM populations.
