Hi everyone. I was 2 1/2 years in remission when I discovered that I had premature ovarian failure. My doctors always told me that there was a chance of me getting pregnant after cancer and now it is gone. Just wondering if there is anyone else with a simular experience. Amber

hi amber. during chemo i became post-menopausal but with time it reversed itself. took about 1 yr after finishing treatments. my docs say i should be able to have kids. i have met others who have conceived despite premature ovarian failure. best of luck to you. charlene
