Default Who do you ask?

I am wondering what is the type of doctor one should look for to get advice on protecting reproductive organs before cancer treatments.
I've contacted a few infertility centers but they seem focused on helping become pregnant now.
Thank you.

I think I understand why I did not an answer here when I posted my question above. Most cancer sufferers are to worried about fighting cancer to think about other things. That was not the case for me. The only thing I was thinking about was having a baby because I don't think it would be worth living if I didn't have a chance to have a baby. And I'd really like to have quite a few. Lucky I learned there are doctors who specialize in this. I'd mention mine but I'm not sure if that is acceptable here. He froze some of my eggs before I had radiation. I had one round and there will probably by another. I feel much better and I'm confident that they got it. (Breast cancer). Maybe this time next year I can go back and think about having my first baby.
