TL;DR: This paper can hypothesize that age is the most important factor for variations in individual ovarian non-growing follicle (NGF) populations, that anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels generally rise and fall in childhood years before peaking in the mid-twenties, and that there are strong correlations between AMH levels and both NGF populations and rates of recruitment towards maturation.

TL;DR: This article summarises the most recently updated recommendations from SIGN, based on systematic reviews of best available evidence, on subsequent primary cancers, fertility, cardiac and bone health, and metabolic effects.

TL;DR: Rapid developments in assisted reproduction techniques (ART) now raise the possibility of cryopreserving gonadal tissue to conserve the fertility of young cancer patients, which raises major practical, scientific, and ethical issues.

TL;DR: The findings reinforce the view that the 'childhood' testis is not quiescent, and suggest that GnRH antagonist-based intervention might be only partially successful in establishing testicular cell function/activity between the neonatal period and puberty.

TL;DR: Limitation of radiation exposure by shielding of the testes and ovaries should be practiced where possible and sperm banking should be offered to all sexually mature boys at risk of infertility.
