Thyroid cancer treatment and its effect on fertility
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how different thyroid cancer treatments affect ovarian function and the ability to become pregnant in women aged 20-45. It aims to help women understand the impact of their treatment on future fertility.

This study checks whether chemotherapy for breast cancer affects thyroid function. It follows patients during treatment to see if thyroid problems develop.
This trial is testing whether giving radiation therapy after thyroid surgery can help destroy any leftover cancer cells in people with high-risk differentiated thyroid cancer. It is for those who had surgery but some cancer was still left behind.
This study tests if a man-made hormone (rhTSH) can make radioactive iodine therapy more effective for people with advanced thyroid cancer that has come back or spread. It aims to see if it helps find and treat cancer that doesn't respond well to standard radioactive iodine.
This study helps women with cancer keep their ability to have children after treatment. It offers egg or embryo freezing and checks on pregnancy and baby health later on.
This study follows young female cancer patients to see how cancer treatments may affect their ovaries, fertility, and future pregnancies. It also looks at how well fertility preservation methods (like egg or embryo freezing) work, with the goal of improving fertility care for future patients.
This study compares two ways of replacing thyroid hormone after radioactive iodine therapy for high-risk thyroid cancer. It aims to find which approach is more effective and better for patients.
