Prevalence and predictors for fertility-related distress among 1010 young adults 1.5 years following cancer diagnosis - results from the population-based Fex-Can Cohort study.

This nationwide study found a high prevalence of fertility-related distress in young women and men recently treated for cancer and identified sociodemographic and psychological predictors. Fertility preservation was not found to act as a buffer against fertility-related distress, indicating the continuous need to identify strategies to alleviate fertility distress following cancer.
