Many cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery can effect a person’s ability to have children. Some therapies will take years to complete, further complicating the reproductive window. Other treatments can induce premature menopause which can have negative effects on bone health, mental health, and cardiovascular health.
Oncofertility integrates both oncology and reproductive endocrinology. Our physicians will create a short and long-term reproductive plan to ensure that we help you to maintain your quality of life through your cancer treatment and beyond.

- Oncofertility consultation
- Ovarian reserve testing
- Fertility Preservation
- Embryo Freezing
