“I want to get pregnant but I have undergone chemotherapy 2 years back. Is it advisable to conceive?”
I was suffering from a cancerous growth in my ears. After 6 months of chemotherapy I was treated for the condition. I am now 32 years old and I now want to plan and start my family. Considering my history of chemotherapy, is a pregnancy advisable?

It should be fine just touch base with your medical oncologist to ensure you are fine.
If you completed chemo 2 years ago, I would recommend fertility evaluation. Some chemo can affect reproduction.
If you are having regular periods and chemotherapy is this far out, then there should not be a problem. There is no evidence that remote chemotherapy negatively impacts fetal health. Getting pregnant might be a little harder.
