We hope you’ll join us for this important discussion, where we’ll communicate risk factors, actionable prevention, and early detection steps to improve outcomes for women who are diagnosed with lung cancer. We’ll address what we need to know and understand about how women uniquely experience lung cancer, and what known differences are seen in lung cancer between men and women. We will also discuss women’s sexuality and sexual health as it relates to the lung cancer journey – an important but often overlooked topic.
