Article Synopsis
- The "Joven & Fuerte" program enhances access to fertility-preservation (FP) strategies for young breast cancer patients in resource-limited areas like Mexico, addressing the gap in treatment-related infertility.
- Out of 447 studied patients, only 12% preserved fertility, highlighting a significant need for better FP support despite 38% expressing a desire for future children.
- Factors such as younger age, higher education, employment status, private healthcare, and fewer children increased the likelihood of utilizing FP methods like oocyte/embryo cryopreservation and ovarian suppression during chemotherapy.
