A patient should be informed of both during and after treatment effect of chemotherapy. During the treatment, the patient may experience gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal or constitutional symptoms, they can be referred to as frequent vomiting, loss of appetite and diarrhea. Some patients may also experience fevers and feel tired quickly. One of the most seen side effects of chemotherapy is alopecia, wherein the patient's hair falls out. While after the treatment, the patient may not feel any side effects immediately, but after a few months or years, signs of heart or kidney problems may appear, so as lung tissue damage or nerve damage. Patients who undergo chemotherapy may experience infertility, or the state wherein your ability to conceive a child is gone or low and also Chemotherapy has a risk that the cancer may reemerge after some time after treatment.

How does school affect your personal physical fitness and dietary practices?
ipn [44]

Explanation:

P.E. can be hard on students. I personally get very sore after many of the workouts the school has us do as well as many students. Out of school we often don't exercise because we know we will have to do it at school and because we are already sore we have no motivation or want to exercise.  As for dietary practices many schools have been pushing for healthier food options which has its pros and cons. Believe it or not but healthier food options are more expensive for schools so instead of paying more the school pays the same amount for less food which cuts the portions of the students leaving them still hungry. It can be bad for the body not being able to eat when its hungry so it also leaves students hungry and tired which can affect their grades.

This is because there won't be any egg available for the sperm to fertilise.
