AnCan Foundation supports several conditions that compromise the pelvic floor as a result of surgery, radiation, or just side effects of the disease itself. It can impact continence and sexual function for all!
A non-interventional rehab solution is pelvic floor physical therapy – a sub-specialty in itself.
Join one of AnCan’s favorite superstars, urologist Dr. Rachel Rubin, and esteemed expert Dr. Tracy Sher. Together, shared how pelvic floor exercises can help you recover function!
You’ll also get a ton of questions answered, asked by MS Moderator Kim Stroeh, and Prostate Cancer moderator Dr. John Antonucci.

“We face fears of death and dying, and at times turn to authors who have thought deeply and written about the topic. I offer here a short bibliography on the topic. Ideally it would be an organic list, onto which readers could add suggestions or comments.” – Dr. John Antonucci

AnCan is proud to announce that we recently joined the Modern Medicaid Alliance, a partnership
between Americans who value Medicaid and leading advocacy organizations. We look forward to
working with the Alliance to educate policymakers and the public about the benefits and value of
Medicaid.
As part of our partnership with the Modern Medicaid Alliance, we will be highlighting the diverse
populations that depend on Medicaid for their health and financial security. Medicaid covers about
1 in 5 Americans, including millions of children, older adults, people with disabilities, and 2million
veterans. Medicaid provides an essential safety net for when Americans need it, providing high-
quality, cost-effective care to more than 73 million people nationwide.
We join the Modern Medicaid Alliance at a critical time. While policymakers debate changes to
Medicaid, the program is enjoying widespread support from Americans. In fact, recent polling
found that 86% of Americans want a strong, sustainable Medicaid program – and fewer than 20%
of Americans support cutting Medicaid funding.
AnCan is particularly interested in furthering Medicaid expansion in all States in order to
promote health equity. Indeed, providing mental health services to veterans and to all those
enduring chronic conditions is an urgent need.
