Strategies for overcoming oncological treatment-related ovarian dysfunction - literature review.

In the majority of developed countries, it is observed that the time for maternity is being postponed to over the 30th and even 40th year of life. A significant number of cancers are diagnosed during reproductive age, often before the first pregnancy. A fertility preservation is an important issue in oncological treatment, where there is a need for balancing between radicality and the preservation of function of reproductive organs. The authors discuss the problem of ovarian dysfunction after oncological treatment and present the possible strategies for saving the reproductive function of ovaries, including both invasive and pharmacological approaches.
