title: Cancer in women with infertility.
abstract: There has been increasing concern in recent years regarding a possible link between drugs given for infertility treatment and the subsequent risk of cancer, particularly ovarian cancer. Recent epidemiological studies reassure us that any effect, if present, is likely to be small, and does not affect women who conceive with such treatment.
