Description

Fertility consultation is a recognized standard that should be offered to pediatric patients with fertility threatening diagnoses or undergoing fertility threatening therapy. The primary objective of this study is to determine how patients who did proceed with fertility preservation differ from those who declined the procedure. This study aims to assess barriers that may contribute to the underutilization of fertility preservation procedures after a formal consultation is completed.
