  schema:description "Radiotherapy to the pelvis can stop the ovaries working and end fertility, and can damage sperm production. Before treatment starts, your team should talk with you about fertility and refer you quickly if you want to protect it: sperm, eggs or embryos can be frozen, and for some women a surgeon can move the ovaries up out of the radiation field."@en ;
