Abstract
Female survivors of young adult (YA) cancers are at risk of fertility impacts following cancer treatment. For these women, fertility-related distress is both prevalent and persistent. Yet there is little research regarding survivors' perspectives on alternative family-building options, particularly adoption. This exploratory secondary data analysis analyzed semistructured interviews and explored survivors' views of adoption. Overall, female YA survivors reported openness to adoption as a possible substitute for biological conception and an alternative to fertility preservation. It is imperative that this population receives support in decision-making around and consideration of the unique barriers to adoption for cancer survivors.
年轻成人（YA）癌症女性幸存者在接受癌症治疗后有可能影响生育。对于这些女性来说，与生育相关的困扰既普遍又持久。然而，有关幸存者对建立家庭的其他选择（尤其是领养）的看法的研究却很少。这项探索性二次数据分析分析了半结构式访谈，探讨了幸存者对领养的看法。总体而言，女性 YA 幸存者对领养持开放态度，认为领养可以替代生物受孕，也是保留生育能力的一种替代方式。当务之急是为这一人群提供决策支持，并考虑癌症幸存者在收养方面的独特障碍。
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
