Prostate cancer (PC) treatment causes sexual dysfunction (SD) and alters fertility, male identity, and intimate relationships with partners. In Japan, little attention has been paid to the importance of providing care for SD associated with PC treatment. This study is aimed at clarifying the care needs of Japanese men regarding SD associated with PC treatment. One-to-one semi-structured interviews were conducted with 44 PC patients to identify their care needs. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis. Four core categories emerged from the analysis. (1) “Need for empathy from medical staff regarding fear of SD”: patients had difficulty confiding in others about their sexual problems, and medical staff involvement in their SD issues was lacking. (2) “Need for information that provides an accurate understanding of SD and coping strategies before deciding on treatment”: lack of information about SD in daily life and difficulty understanding information from medical institutions, caused men to regret their treatment. (3) “Need for professional care for individuals and couples affected by SD”: men faced loss of intimacy because of their partners’ unwillingness to understand their SD issues or tolerate non-sexual relationships. (4) “Need for an environment that facilitates interaction among men to resolve SD issues”: men felt lonely and wanted to interact with other patients about their SD concerns. These findings may help form care strategies tailored to these needs and applicable to other societies with strong traditional gender norms.
