[Desire for pregnancy and breast cancer]

Breast cancer affects about 3,000 new women of childbearing age each year. The desire for pregnancy is therefore a frequent issue in the management of breast cancer. We reviewed the current state of knowledge and recommendations in high-risk women, on the consideration of this desire for pregnancy in therapeutic management, the way to approach it, the preservation of fertility in the care process and finally on the outcomes of pregnancy after breast cancer. We evaluated the desire for pregnancy, qualitatively and quantitatively, after breast cancer through a literature review.
