Attitude of BRCA1/2 mutation carriers towards fertility preservation, family planning and preimplantation genetic testing for primary prevention of breast and ovarian cancer in the next generation

Increasing the knowledge and awareness of these issues is important and should be included in multidisciplinary counselling.
