Is having children after cancer still possible?

For many, this is one of the first questions that comes after a diagnosis, especially when plans for the future suddenly feel uncertain.

While the answers may differ for each individual, these are important conversations to start early. Understanding your options can help you make more informed decisions about what comes next.

At Parkway Cancer Centre, care is guided by a multidisciplinary team, with each treatment plan carefully balancing effective cancer treatment with the safety of the pregnancy.

This balance is what shapes when and how treatment is carried out.

For some women, gynaecological cancers and their treatments can affect the pelvic floor, leading to changes in everyday functions like bladder or bowel control.

While these changes can be difficult to talk about, they can be managed with the right support.
