Fertility preservation

Fertility and cancer care

Many cancer treatments can damage or destroy your eggs or limit your ability to carry a pregnancy. We can fast-track a referral with the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center Oncoreproduction Clinic to protect your ability to have children before you start treatment. Fred Hutch is an independent organization that also serves as the cancer program for UW Medicine.

Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center Oncoreproduction Clinic helps to raise awareness of available reproductive health services and expedites in-system referrals for Fred Hutch patients seeking information and support regarding fertility preservation.
