Dr. Mike Neal: Male Fertility Concerns for Survivors

Posted on November 18, 2016 by Kelly Zorzi

Dr. Mike Neal: Male Fertility Concerns for Survivors

One false assumption is that childhood cancer treatment won’t have an effect on fertility. It is important to increase awareness about the options men have prior to and post treatment. Procedures can be easy and inexpensive and can offer insurance to young men who are hoping to have a family down the road.

Michael Neal, BSc. (Hons), MSc is the Scientific Director at ONE Fertility in Burlington Ontario. He spoke at POGO’s 2013 Survivor Conference: Life after Childhood Cancer. 

Straight Talk about Childhood Cancer is POGO’s series of video shorts featuring the insights of experts whose leading-edge work impacts the care, treatment and quality of life of childhood cancer patients, survivors and their families.

Preserving Fertility, Preserving Hope: Options for Children Facing Cancer Therapy – and Those who have Survived

Posted on February 7, 2013 by admin

Presentation Description: This presentation explores fertility preservation options for pediatric patients and associated challenges. For those who have not achieved sexual maturity, a potential option is vitrification of ovarian or testicular tissue in the hope that future laboratory science will be able to rescue and mature the immature gametes contained in the biopsied materials. For those who have achieved sexual maturity, the options are experimental but there is clinical experience. Finally, for those who missed fertility preservation but have viable gametes, premature reproductive senescence remains the principle concern.

Speaker:

Arthur Leader, BA, MD, FRCSC
Professor, Obstetrics, Gynecology, Medicine
