Description:

Dr. Joyce O'Shaughnessy, an oncologist, discusses the issue of fertility and breast cancer patients. The major issue is whether or not the cancer is estrogen receptor positive or negative. Chemotherapy can bring on early menopause, but even in this case, women do have options.

We deal with this problem commonly. Sometimes women just want to make sure they will be able to get pregnant after they have treatment for breast cancer.
