Fertility preservation in cancer patients is a critical consideration, as certain cancer treatments, particularly chemotherapy and radiation, can impair reproductive function. Before starting cancer therapy, patients of reproductive age may be given the option to preserve their fertility to ensure that they can have children in the future. Methods such as egg or sperm freezing, embryo preservation, or ovarian tissue cryopreservation are common approaches used to safeguard fertility. The choice of preservation method depends on factors like the patient's age, the type of cancer, and the anticipated treatment regimen. It is important for oncologists to address fertility preservation options early in the treatment process, as this decision can have long-lasting effects on the patient’s future quality of life. Providing counseling and support about fertility options ensures that patients are informed and empowered to make decisions that align with their personal and family goals, while also receiving the necessary cancer treatment.
