deciding to freeze eggs or not before chemo

Hi just joined today. Was diagnosed with breast cancer on the 19th of June.  had a masectomy on the 30th of June.  went today to see my consultant for results. 9 out of the 10 lymph nodes are affected so will need chemo. Have been reading that there is a possibility that chemo can make you infertile. so don’t know if I should freeze my eggs before chemo or take my chances and see if I can still get pregnant after. Any advise will be appreciated. Thanks  Tracey
