AfterThoughts was created to make visible some of the invisible cancer stories from within the young cancer community.
It's another shortcast and we're looking at some of the most intimate stories there are. Sex and cancer. And you can't talk about sex and cancer without talking about fertility and cancer. Krista, Nat, Reielle and Jay share their stories about sex, fertility, relationships and so much more.

AfterThoughts is supported by Trekstock and Alike. Trekstock gets young adults moving again, physically, emotionally, socially and psychologically, after cancer has stopped them in their tracks. Alike is a game-changing peer support platform because living with cancer can be lonely. Speak to others who have been there, done that, and worn the unflattering hospital gown.
As ever, AfterThoughts deals with some conversations you may find tricky to listen to. If you need any further support, please don't hesitate to get in touch with our friends at Trekstock or find peer support on the Alike app.
