Post‐procedural considerations

Immediate care

It is important that the patient has information to take away and has a contact number in case further questions arise. The patient should be informed of when the results are likely to be available and how they will be communicated.

Ongoing care

Patients who are undergoing treatments that may lead to infertility should be offered independent counselling to help them cope with the possible physical and psychological implications of the treatment and its side‐effects.
