Both patients with hematologic conditions and their hematologists face a complex set of challenges when considering options for fertility preservation. With new technologies available and a broader understanding of the need for fertility preservation, there are more opportunities available. This session will explore why there has been such a marked increase in demand for these options, what exactly the options and techniques available are and what both hematologists and their patients need to expect in success rates, complications and demands on their already busy schedules.
