This study evaluated fertility-related experiences of young adult female cancer survivors (18-39 years). Data were from a retrospective, cross-sectional survey. Women were more likely to undergo pre-treatment fertility preservation (FP) if they received fertility counseling (by a fertility nurse specialist, reproductive endocrinologist, or gynecologist). Compared with women who underwent FP, those who did not had greater decision regret (DR) after treatment (p < 0.001). Multiple reasons for not pursuing FP were reported; lack of time and distress related to more DR and not wanting children in the future related to less DR (p < 0.05). Decision regret may lead to psychosocial morbidity in survivorship.
本研究评估了年轻成年女性癌症幸存者(18 - 39岁)与生育相关的经历。数据来自一项回顾性横断面调查。如果女性接受了生育咨询(由生育护士专家、生殖内分泌学家或妇科医生提供),她们更有可能在治疗前进行生育力保存(FP)。与接受FP的女性相比,未接受FP的女性在治疗后有更大的决策遗憾(DR)(p < 0.001)。报告了不进行FP的多种原因;与更多DR相关的时间不足和痛苦,以及与较少DR相关的未来不想生育(p < 0.05)。决策遗憾可能导致幸存者出现心理社会疾病。
