Based on the sexual response cycle, outcomes were categorized as those occurring among males (desire\u2009=\u20091, arousal\u2009=\u20091, orgasm\u2009=\u20094, other\u2009=\u20093) and females (desire\u2009=\u20092, arousal\u2009=\u20091, orgasm\u2009=\u20092, pain\u2009=\u20096, other\u2009=\u20093). It was feasible to conduct meta-analysis for 3 female SHO and 5 male SHO. There were associations between AYA cancer and 3 SHO: vaginal dryness (pooled odds ratio = 3.94; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 2.02 to 7.70), ejaculatory dysfunction (pooled odds ratio = 3.66; 95% CI = 2.20 to 6.08), and testosterone level (pooled mean difference\u2009=\u2009-2.56\u2009nmol\/liter; 95% CI = -3.46 to -1.66; P\u2009=\u2009.00001).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n
