  abstract = {{O}bjectives: {T}o determine the procreational intention rates among cancer survivors whose fertility was unimpaired and to identify the factors associated with their procreational intentions. {M}ethods: {S}ix thousand nine hundred and fifty-seven adult cancer patients treated between {S}eptember and {O}ctober 2002 were randomly selected from the {F}rench {N}ational {H}ealth {I}nsurance {F}und's {C}hronic {D}isease {F}ile. {O}f the 6957, 4270 responded to a cross-sectional questionnaire 2 years after diagnosis, of whom 959 reported being fertile and responded to a question about their procreational intentions. {R}esults: {A}mong the 257 male and female survivors aged 20-44, 86 (33.5%) had procreational intentions. {A}fter adjusting for age, gender, and already having children, only a high educational level (adjusted odds ratio: 3.1, 95% confidence interval 1.3-7.8) and stable or increasing financial resources (2.4, 1.0-5.7) were independently associated with the respondents' procreational intentions. {N}either cancer stage at diagnosis nor the present stage significantly affected their plans in this respect. {C}onclusions: {T}wo years after cancer diagnosis, the reasons why some survivors who are still fertile have no parenthood projects were similar to those earlier given by members of the general population.},
