Key Concepts
- Targeted to children, parents, and providers
- Reproductive health taught in the context of critical-illness
- Learn about fertility preservation options for adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer patients
Reproductive health can also be taught in the context of critical-illness, as many diseases and treatments alike can harm both reproductive and endocrine health in many individuals. SaveMyFertility is a patient and provider education resource that provides authoritative information to young cancer patients, their parents and partners whose fertility may have been or will be impaired by life-saving treatment for a disease. SaveMyFertility.org provides answers to cancer-related fertility questions, guidance for talking to physicians about fertility concerns, and assistance finding a fertility preservation specialist. The website has become an important resource for fertility preservation guidance and patient education.
