At AnaOno, our goal is to help you feel sexy, confident and comfortable as you embrace your survivor, thriver or previvor status. For some of us, sex isn't what it was before cancer, especially not right after receiving radiation treatment or having surgery.
Intimacy after mastectomy can be particularly challenging, but we've found that one of the best ways to prepare yourself for that next step is to find lingerie that boosts your confidence and makes you feel utterly desirable. Check out our top mastectomy bras for getting your groove back.
