Cancer treatment may be hazardous for pregnant women, but that hazard is principally related to the first trimester of pregnancy. It is not uncommon for patients in their second and third trimesters of pregnancy to safely receive chemotherapy and for the cancer and then go on and have a perfectly safe pregnancy.

Cancer treatment does not have to impair fertility. Indeed, for most women and men who receive chemotherapy there is no impact on fertility, especially if you are younger.
