| Abstract [eng] |
The total number of oncological diseases is constantly growing, but the improvement of treatment options significantly increases the survival rates. It shows the importance of the oncological patients’ quality of life after a succesful treatment. Prior to the prescription of any gonadotoxic medications, every patient of a fertile age should be informed about the risks of damaging fertility and recommended protective treatments. Ovarian transposition, oocyte, embryo or ovarian tissue cryoconservation and gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists’ (GnRHa) therapy these are the clinically tested fertility-protecting treatment methods. For the appropriate method to be selected, it is very important to take into consideration the female’s age, ovarian condition, social-economic situation, religious views, overall health condition, and related diseases. |
