"It is not uncommon for AYAs to take time off from school during cancer treatment. When they do return to school, it is natural to want to jump right in and return to a normal schedule; however, patients need to remember that going back to school can be physically and emotionally tiring." 26/02/2022

"While fertility may return following treatment, it is important to prepare for the possibility of permanent infertility.

Fertility issues should be discussed with the healthcare team at the time of diagnosis because AYAs can take steps to preserve their fertility before their lymphoma treatment begins. " 25/02/2022

A Lymphoma diagnosis can interrupt a time when AYAs are becoming independent, establishing relationships and careers; instead of dealing with those life issues, they must face not only their own distress and emotions about their diagnosis but those of their family and friends as well. They may also find themselves reevaluating their priorities and goals. 23/02/2022

The relative youth and maturity level of AYAs has a significant effect on their ability to manage their diagnosis and treatment. Factors such as the belief that “it cannot happen to me,” overall healthcare-related knowledge, unique concerns regarding body image and fertility issues, and relationship matters must all be considered when building a treatment plan for AYAs.
