Abstract:
Most young breast cancer survivors consider reproductive issues to be of great importance, but many questions remain undervalued and unanswered. Overall, available data support the safety and feasibility of pregnancy and breastfeeding after breast cancer. The accuracy of the evidence is however limited by: i) the retrospective and frequently incomplete population-based nature of the data, ii) data not representing the entire population, iii) patient-related effects, iv) underpowered sample size, and v) lack of control for biological factors and risk determinants. We review the available evidence in light of these limitations which outline the need for prospective data collection and focused priority research.
