Abstract P1-10-17: Fertility and other gynaecological concerns in young women treated with chemotherapy for breast cancer between 2003 and 2012

Conclusion: About 50% of the pts considered not to have received adequate information on fertility and other gynaecological consequences of anti cancer treatment.This study shows how important gynaecologic considerations are for young breast cancer patients. Information about impact of treatment, fertility preservation techniques and symptoms of premature ovarian failure should be part of the treatment of these patients. Specific time should be devoted during the different consultations before, during and after treatments.Citation Format: Mailliez A, Bregegere S, Bonneterre J.
