A thoughtful conversation about sexual symptom burden should occur as part of a comprehensive assessment of the overall well‐being of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms. In the article by Geyer et al in this issue of Cancer , the authors quantify the sexuality‐related symptoms, along with quality of life, in patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms, and evaluate how they correspond to disease features and treatment.
