Sterility after an auto-SCT

by Barneasada on Mon Nov 26, 2012 9:24 pm

I am a 26 yo male with possibility of an auto-SCT in next few months and am banking my sperm as we speak. What have been most males experiences with regards to sterility after a SCT and what were your outcomes post transplant ???? I'm very anxious about outcomes of other people's experiences with sterility after SCT. Is there any scientific data in regards to outcomes?

Hello,

I'm a 34 yr old male, who has undergone Tandem Auto SCT's in 2010 and 2011. I've been curious about this as well, although my doctor has said while it's highly unlikely that I would be sterile, there is a possibility and a few patients have had children after an SCT.
