Schematic cartoon summarizing the possible future beneficial effects of various agents in minimizing the gonadotoxic effect of chemotherapy. In addition to the present modalities of GnRHa co-administration, cryopreservation of embryos, ova, or ovarian tissue, future endeavors may consist of the generation of gametes from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPC), in vitro maturation (IVM) of PMFs stored in the cryopreserved ovarian tissue, generation of an in vitro “artificial ovary,” and use of many possible agents. Such possible protective agents include AMH, tamoxifen, melatonin, Shilajit, resveratrol, imatinib (Gleevec), mangafodipir, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), AS101, ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), dexrazoxane, and possibly others (???). AMH indicates anti-Müllerian hormone.
