It totaly depends on the chemo. Some chemo's can bring on menopause early in women, some can cause fertility loss, and some rarely do or don't. If they don't cause fertility loss, dr's usually recommend a 1-2 year wait before getting pregnant. I personally think this is a question you should call your onc and ask about.
