Abstract
Whether fertility treatments and in particular IVF are related to carcinogenesis in women is a rather interesting issue, which is of interest in more than one specialty. The female malignancies we refer to are mainly those of the breast, endometrium, and ovary, with breast cancer being the most common malignancy in the female population affecting 1 in 8 women worldwide; ovarian cancer is the 6th in frequency, and endometrial cancer, which is the most common gynecological cancer after breast cancer, has an incidence of 8% of all. The chapter aims to present current evidence regarding correlation between IVF treatment and risk of various gynaecological cancers.
