Two years after diagnosis, the sexual desire of prostate cancer survivors is deteriorated with the cancer experience. However, clinical characteristics do not seem to be decisive unlike a "satisfying" financial situation. Research about the impact of socio economics characteristics on sexual health should probably be engaged. Programs have to be developed in France to have personalized sexual support progressed for survivors and take spouses into consideration in this context.
