Abstract

Advances in cancer care have led to a growing number of cancer survivors globally. As cancer increasingly affects women and people of reproductive age, more individuals will be experiencing pregnancy after completing cancer treatment. This Best Practice Advice manuscript describes the epidemiology of pregnancy after cancer, recommended clinical evaluation before pregnancy, key components of pregnancy care for cancer survivors, considerations for delivery planning and postpartum care, and suggested steps for future health and prevention.
