Fertility counseling before cancer treatment and subsequent reproductive concerns among female adolescent and young adult cancer survivors

Cancer Dec 03, 2018

Young K, et al. - In this cross-sectional analysis performed among 747 adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer survivors aged 18-40 years, researchers examined the link between fertility counseling by fertility specialists prior to cancer treatment and subsequent reproductive concerns. The participants included individuals who had been recruited from cancer registries and physician and advocacy group referrals between 2015 and 2017. Moderate to high reproductive concerns were reported by a large proportion of AYA cancer survivors across cancer types and treatment exposures, suggesting that these cancer-specific reproductive health concerns need to be addressed. There is a need to improve the quality of fertility counseling throughout the cancer continuum as indicated by higher concerns reported even with counseling.
