AIMS: While breast cancer is rare in men, its incidence is rising, prompting more research into the mental health impacts of the disease in male patients. Anxiety, depression and sleep disorders are well-documented in women with breast cancer, but the effects on men are not as well understood, underscoring a need for gender-specific analysis.
METHODS: This retrospective cohort study used data from the Health Insurance Review & Assessment Service from 2009 to 2017, examining patients diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ or invasive breast cancer. A propensity score matching at a 5:1 ratio resulted in a sample size of 280 men and 1,400 women for analysis. The study assessed the cumulative incidence of anxiety, depression and sleep disorders, along with potential risk factors for these conditions.
RESULTS: Out of 75,936 breast cancer patients, 0.4% (281) were men. Women exhibited a significantly higher incidence of mental health conditions compared to men (p = 0.017), particularly in terms of anxiety. However, there were no significant gender differences in the incidence of depression or sleep disorders. Women demonstrated a higher risk of developing anxiety disorders (hazard ratio: 1.498, 95% CI: 1.057-2.123, p = 0.023). After adjusting for confounders, gender differences in depression and sleep disorders were not statistically significant.
CONCLUSIONS: Women with breast cancer experience higher rates of anxiety disorders, while depression and sleep disorders show no gender disparity. These findings suggest that mental health care approaches should be adapted to better support men with breast cancer and address their unique mental health needs.
