ABSTRACT
This is a retrospective, multicentric study, aimed to describe the real-life application of fertility preservation methods during treatment in female lymphoma patients, aged 18-40 years old, diagnosed between Oct 1st/2010 and May 31st/2018. Among 414 women included, median age was 28 years old, histologies were HL 74%, PMBCL 13%, DLBCL 10%, others 3%. First line treatments were ABVD in 295 (71%), R-CHOP like in 102 (25%), higher intensity regimens in 17 (4%) cases. Fertility preservation strategies were GnRHa in 315 (78%), Oral Contraceptive in 41 (10%), oocytes and ovarian tissue cryopreservation in 55 and 42 patients, respectively. After therapy, we observed a restored regular period in 293 (70%) and premature ovarian failure (POF) in 33 (8%), Furthermore we recorded 43 pregnancies, all spontaneous with 5 years median follow-up. Median age at diagnosis and number of lines of treatment correlate with higher rate of amenorrhea, risk of POF and menopause (p < 0.001).
