Does Chemotherapy Cause Infertility?

Sir, My wife had undergone chemotherapy four years before (when she was 26) she got married at 29. now she is 30. We have been trying to get preganant for last one year, but no result. her periods are normal. the only abormal symptom is that her body use to get hot (for seconds) quite often and come b ack to normal temeprature. Can she become pregnant. is it due to chemotherapy. I think she did chemotherapy for six months and did not had periods for i year.

Thanks for posting your query to HCM.
To get pregnancy you require:
1 Normal semen analysis report .
2. normal uterus with patent tubes tested by Histosalpingography .
3.normal hormonal status of your wife :FSH,LH,TSH .
I want to know the cause for which your wife had taken chemotherapy for long time because genital tuberculosis is a common cause of infertility and require long chemotheray .
So you should check for above parameter and then consult gynecologist .
best wishes for both of you .Feel free to communicate if any query.
regards
