Custom Provider Talking Guide

Our "How to Talk to Your Doctor" guide contains questions you may ask your doctor to help start the conversation:

  1. How is my cancer affecting my health right now?
  2. How quickly do I need to start treatment?
  3. How will my cancer and cancer treatment affect my fertility?
  4. Based on my treatment plan, what is my risk of infertility [high, moderate, low]?
  5. What are my options for fertility preservation before I begin cancer treatment?
  6. Can I have a child after my cancer?
  7. Can you refer me to a fertility preservation specialist to discuss my options further?

Remember there are other ways to build a family after cancer if you are unable to preserve your fertility now. Talking with a specialist can help you explore other options that might be right for you.
