Natural Pregnancy

If you are a woman who has completed cancer treatment, your body may recover naturally and produce mature eggs that can be fertilized. Your doctor may advise you to wait for some length of time before you try to get pregnant. The length of time could vary depending on the type of cancer and the treatment you had. It is always best to talk to your doctor before going on with a pregnancy plan.
Some oncologists just make a standard recommendation to wait 2 years before trying to get pregnant. This is often based on the fact that many cancers tend to have the highest rates of recurrence (the cancer coming back) in the first 2 years after treatment. But women who have had chemo or radiation to the pelvis are also at risk for sudden, early menopause even after they start having menstrual cycles again. Women over age 35 may want a clear reason for how long they should wait to try to conceive.
