Fertility and Cancer with Sara J Matthews and Emma Cannon

A cancer diagnosis of any kind is a traumatic experience. Although fertility normally isn’t the initial concern, it is increasingly an important consideration; particularly since life expectancy post cancer diagnosis has significantly increased.

Some cancer treatments will impact short and long term fertility; either due to toxicity of chemotherapy or removal of ovaries (to reduce oestrogen). Male fertility may also be impacted by cancer treatments

This discussion, with leading Gynaecologist, Miss Sara Matthews & Emma Cannon, Fertility Mentor, will provide invaluable information to those facing cancer treatment who have yet to conceive or may want to extend their family post cancer treatment.

We are privileged to be joined by Sara Matthews.  Miss Matthews has one of the broadest experiences of all consultants in the UK in the field of Fertility Medicine, having worked in a number of the largest, most established and highly regarded fertility units in the country.  She is now based solely at the Portland Hospital for Women and Children in London, where she has had her own very successful independent practice since 2008.
