Article Synopsis
- Breast cancer affects around 25% of women of reproductive age globally, and chemotherapy, while necessary, may lead to fertility issues for these young patients.
- A study analyzed 100 premenopausal breast cancer patients and found an 82% incidence of chemotherapy-induced amenorrhea (CIA), with only 66.7% eventually regaining their menstrual cycles.
- The research identified patient age at diagnosis as a significant risk factor for CIA, highlighting the importance of considering fertility preservation methods for affected patients.
