Summary: This study aims to assess providers' and survivors' experiences with fertility preservation decision-making, unmet needs, and design preferences to inform the development of a web-based patient decision aid.

Fertility considerations prior to conservative management of gynecologic cancers

Katherine Stewart et al.

Summary: With increasing evidence demonstrating acceptable outcomes for fertility-sparing management of early-stage gynecologic cancers, the need for guidance on selecting appropriate candidates for such treatments is growing. It is essential to consider an individual's fertility potential and potential barriers to conception before making major oncologic treatment decisions. A multidisciplinary approach to treatment with early referral to reproductive and maternal-fetal medicine specialists is recommended.
