the dr wanted me to save sperm before i was treated because it can cause sterility but now i have a wonderful 3yo to prove that it doesn't always mean that you will be sterileIt depends on the type of drug used, dose & schedule of treatment. Chemotherapy involves the use of drugs that destroy cells that grow rapidly, a characteristic of cancer cells. Unfortunately, chemotherapy also affects normal cells that grow rapidly, like cells that generate sperm in the testes.

Some chemotherapy drugs are more likely to cause sterility, while there tends to be a much lesser degree of long-term toxicity with the newer forms of chemotherapy. The classes of chemotherapy drugs that are more likely to cause sterility are alkylating agents, platinum compounds (Platinol®), melphalan, to mention a few.
