before and during cancer treatment

In this section, we share:

• questions to ask
• common treatment impacts
• information for trans and gender diverse people
• what could help.

We don’t use the term ‘coping’ because sometimes we don’t cope. While there are affirming health providers, some providers aren’t ready or confident to support queer bodies and identities. Not everyone can or wants to come out to their health providers (see: coming out to health providers).

Everyone’s experience is different.
