Other cancer treatments
Sometimes other treatments may be used to treat cancer, for example:
- Blood and Marrow Transplantation (BMT): can use chemotherapy, radiotherapy and antibody treatments alongside blood and bone marrow stem cell infusions.
- Cellular therapies (e.g., CAR T-cell therapy): are often combined with chemotherapy.
If these treatments affect your fertility, the effect is often permanent which means that you will not be able to get pregnant in the future. You will need to have a pregnancy test before you begin these treatments and will be advised not to get pregnant while you are having the treatments.
