Abstract
The preservation of fertility in young women of reproductive age has become a major challenge in medicine, since most cancer treatments can cause premature ovarian failure due to ovarian toxicity of chemotherapeutic agents. Based on this sensitivity it is necessary to revert or minimize damage to reproductive cells resulting from chemotherapy. It have become more frequent studies and researches for alternatives to preserve female fertility, and treatments that are more selective for cancer cells. Currently there are several options for preservation of fertility in women undergoing chemotherapy treatments.
This article aims to present an overview of the damage caused by chemotherapy ovarian function and possible options for preserving fertility in female cancer patients and prospects in oncofertilidade. A search on databases were searched for relevant articles: the National Library of Medicine (PubMed) and the Virtual Health Library. Articles published between 1967 and 2015 on chemotherapeutic agents and their damage on female fertility was held.
