Endometrial cancer: Brachytherapy and sex

I had Stage 1A grade 2 endometrial cancer with lymphatic/vascular invasion. 33% into the endometrial wall. It was recommended to have 3 vaginal brachytherapy sessions. I wonder if others have had this and what the short and long term effects have been with this process?
Thankyou in advance. And if willing to share, how has it impacted your sex life?

@miriam57, I know you already got some great feedback from @embeth99. I'd also like to bring @m1b1r9 @jeanadair123 and @polkagal who have had vaginal brachytherapy and they may be able to share more about any short or long-term side effects they experienced, and the impact on sex.

Miriam, you mention "I was told what might happen, now some things are happening." Have you started brachytherapy treatment? What effects are you experiencing?

I finished. I am a little tired, loose stools, it has been a week. I was told to start the dilators 3 to 4 weeks later. If I press low it is tender, not sure if is from hysterectomy or the radiation. Just wondering what others have experienced

@miriam57. Hoping you are resting and being good to yourself now that you are finished. Since your original post asked about the effects of your treatment on sex, I'd like to share my experience. I'm 68 years old and have been in a long-term relationship for 12 years. Before I was diagnosed with endometrial cancer in July, 2019, I was already having painful intercourse due to vaginal dryness. I was scared and the pain became worse after a radical hysterectomy with salpingo-oopherectomy. I had already received mixed messages from my local medical providers on what to do about the vaginal dryness even before last year. When I returned to Mayo Clinic in February this year for my 6 month cancer survivor check, the nurse practitioner who did my gynecological exam gave me information about Mayo Clinic's Women Sexual Health Clinic. https://www.mayoclinic.org/departments-centers/womens-health/center-for-womens-health/services In May, II saw a PT who specializes in pelvic floor health and a psychologist who specializes in sex therapy. The education, advice, and suggested exercises and treatments have made a huge difference. In just these few months, our sex life has been much better. Is there a Women's Sexual Health Clinic near where you live? I read that another member here posted an online resource for pelvic floor health. When you are ready, I hope you will allow these skilled professionals to help and support you and your partner. I'm wishing all the best in your treatment and recovery.
