Infertility and Pregnancy Outcomes of Fertility Spared Gynecological Oncology Patients

Overview

FSS which aims to preserve a woman's fertility while still effectively treating the cancer, has become an increasingly popular option for young women diagnosed with these types of cancers. It is important to assess how FSS affects a woman's reproductive health, sexual function, psychological well-being, and overall quality of life. This research aims to provide valuable insights into the long-term effects of FSS on a woman's life, and can help healthcare providers make informed decisions about the best treatment options for their patients.

This is a prospective cohort study that aims to evaluate the infertility and pregnancy outcomes, as well as the quality of life of women who underwent fertility-sparing surgery for gynecological malignancies. The study included a comprehensive evaluation of the participants' medical history, surgical procedures, oncological treatment, and fertility preservation methods. Participants recruited from a tertiary care hospital, and women diagnosed with gynecological malignancies (e.g. cervical, ovarian, endometrial cancer) who underwent fertility-sparing surgery between 2010 and 2022. Women who have undergone total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, or adjuvant oncological treatment were excluded from the study. Participants were contacted by phone and asked to complete questionnaires to assess their quality of life using the WHOQoL-BREF and FertiQoL scales.
