Abstract
Cancer therapies such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery may place the future fertility of both children and young adults at risk. Oncofertility is a rapidly evolving area that involves increasing access to fertility preservation (FP) information and services. This manuscript aims to: a) highlight the fertility risks associated with cancer therapy and its psychosocial impact, b) describe FP options, c) discuss the unique challenges of FP in distinct cancer populations, and d) illustrate the pivotal role of APNs in oncofertility counselling and education.
