a

Model predicting fertility preservation procedure only includes those who had a consultation.

b

Significance level corresponds to *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001.

c

No female patients underwent any fertility preservation procedure during the study time period; the variable sex was removed from the analyses.

CI, confidence interval.
