Preserving men's fertility

• Testicular function is often compromised after chemotherapy treatment in much the same way as described above for ovarian tissue
• Preservation of fertility for men is much more straightforward than for women
• Freezing of multiple samples of ejaculated semen before chemotherapy and radiotherapy is successful
• Men about to have chemotherapy should be offered cryostorage of sperm as good practice
