Adjusting for age: is it enough to just say you did it?
The study by Gunnala et al. (1) examined an important and controversial question in the literature regarding the fertility potential of BRCA mutation carriers. As pointed out by the authors, determining whether or not carriers of the BRCA mutation have less reproductive potential when viewed from the standpoint of fertility preservation is important for counseling these patients because of their shortened reproductive window. Women with a BRCA mutation who may not be ready to start their families for various reasons have the option of fertility preservation through oocyte or embryo cryopreservation.
