Fertility Preservation
Generations Fertility Care specializes in the treatment and preservation of fertility and reproductive health for men and women with cancer.
As the efficacy of cancer treatment improves, young people are surviving many different types of cancers. With increased survivorship, the quality of life after treatment concludes is becoming an important topic to consider.
As part of the comprehensive treatment of cancer, it is necessary to consider those issues that can directly impact an individual's quailty of life. Both having cancer, and the treatment of cancer, can affect fertility. So it is important that people be offered options to preserve their fertility in the event they may want to become parents.
