Watch The AYAs - “Breakthrough” music video in collaboration with singer-songwriter Luke Escombe following the journey of a puppet named YAPS (Youth Advocate Puppet Survivor) from diagnosis through various stages of treatment and recovery. youtu.be/jX5On6u_0OA?si… #ayacancer

Acknowledge what’s uncomfortable, provide space for humor, and be opportunistic in getting to know a patient. Every interaction is an opportunity to make a deposit in your trust bank. Alison Baker #ayacsm #ayacancercongress


Another great suggestion: Normalize what you need to say, using a phrase like “other patients have wondered about…” Be genuine and straightforward because AYAs can always tell when you are dancing around a topic Alison Baker #ayacsm #ayacancercongress


So proud of being part of this Global AYA Cancer Congress , meeting amazing researchers, discussing #Fertility and #Melanoma #immunotherapy 🗝️ 🙏🏽 Thank you - A/Prof Michelle Peate Canteen Australia Melanoma Institute Australia Professor Georgina Long AO (Bluesky @gvlongphdmd) Matteo Lambertini, MD PhD NSW Health @ProfHandelsman


A take home from Global AYA Cancer Congress congress is how privileged we are in Au when it comes to #cancercare in terms of medical funding, the cancer services (go #CNCs), and that we are not at war 😢 (Also, amazing people are doing amazing things to help address disadvantage.)

This edition’s paper is “Eggsurance? A randomized controlled trial of a decision aid for elective egg freezing” published in our science journal Human Reproduction 👩🎓 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/humrep… OUP Medicine #ESHREjc


Claudia Massarotti, MD Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Totally agree! The power to make an informed choice — including the choice not to proceed — is a win in itself. Sometimes the real value isn’t in doing, but in understanding. #ESHREjc

Attilio Anastasi Claudia Massarotti, MD Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE We live in the era of information! It’s everywhere. But how can we distill the information that is relevant to our specific needs and circumstances? This is where decision tools have value #ESHREjc

Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Great point! 🤔 Indeed in Dr Sherine Sandhu paper the primary outcome was decision conflict -> more than the decision to❄️or not, the level of confidence in the decision made might be the target of any intervention #ESHREjc

A/Prof Michelle Peate Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE In clinical practice it is common that after an extensive consultation young women say "well, maybe I'll be back in a few years". It's a great result even if the answer is still "maybe". Very different from being undecided. And aids may help saving a lot of time #ESHREjc

Claudia Massarotti, MD A/Prof Michelle Peate Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE What do you think might be the benefits of an online tool vs in-person appoitment? Should both always take place? One preeced the other? What are your thoughts on this? #ESHREjc

Verena Ehrbar A/Prof Michelle Peate Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Great point! Decision aids like this aren't just valuable for those who choose to pursue EEF, but also for those who decide it's not the path for them. It's equally important to explore how such tools impact long-term well-being, regardless of the choice made #ESHREjc
