Therapeutic Education Program for Women With Breast Cancer
This intervention will consist of a structured therapeutic education program designed for women with breast cancer. The program will focus on disease-related information, treatment modalities and their associated side effects, sexual function, and strategies to improve therapeutic adherence. The intervention will include two face-to-face educational sessions, each lasting two hours, delivered by a midwife enrolled in the final semester of a Master's program in advanced practices in oncology and Palliatives Cares, followed by supportive follow-up via WhatsApp to reinforce key messages and address participants' concerns. The educational content will be adapted to participants' needs and health literacy levels. Outcomes related to sexual function and treatment adherence will be assessed before the intervention and two months after its implementation.
