Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Reproductive Concerns and Psychological Status in Reproductive‐aged Breast Cancer Survivors: A Pretest‐Posttest Intervention Study
A structured CBT intervention is an effective short-term strategy for alleviating specific fertility-related concerns and improving the psychological well-being of premenopausal BC survivors. The findings support the integration of psychological support, particularly CBT, into survivorship care programs to address the complex reproductive and mental health challenges faced by this group. Further research with a control group and long-term follow-up is recommended to confirm these findings.
