Reproductive Biology and Fertility

Reproductive Biology and Fertility is a research topic within Public Health, Environmental and Occupational Health. Science Explorer counts 79k research works in it since 1950. 24.9% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on fertility preservation in cancer patients, with an emphasis on techniques such as ovarian tissue cryopreservation, oocyte maturation, and embryo development. It explores the impact of gonadotoxic therapy on ovarian function, reproductive aging, and the quality of cryopreserved oocytes. The cluster also delves into the molecular and cellular aspects of follicle development and the role of various growth factors in preserving fertility.
