Some cancer treatments, like chemotherapy, radiation, or certain surgeries, can affect fertility, but it depends on the type of cancer, the treatment, and your age. If having children in the future is important to you, bring this up with your doctor before starting treatment. There are options to preserve fertility, like freezing eggs, embryos, or sperm, and sometimes, adjusting the treatment plan can help protect reproductive health. For women, ovarian tissue freezing or hormone treatments may be options, while men might consider sperm banking. After treatment, your doctor can help you explore family planning options, including assisted reproductive technologies if needed. Being open about your concerns ensures you get the right support and guidance.
