Funding Options for Fertility Preservation

 

A cancer diagnosis can be scary, overwhelming, and confusing. One thing you may want to think about is how cancer and treatments can affect your fertility now or in the future. Fertility is the ability to have biological children.
 
These resources will provide you with information about fertility clinics, estimated preservation costs, and funding options for preserving your fertility.
 
Your medical team will speak with you about your diagnosis, treatment, and any risks to fertility. They can also refer you to a fertility specialist to talk about your options.
 
Your experiences and preferences regarding your sexual and reproductive health are important.
