For each patient, 10 men matched on date of birth were randomly sampled from the normal population. Paternity was defined as date of birth of first child after TC treatment with or without the use of assisted reproductive technology and was assessed by linkage to the Danish Medical Birth Register and the Danish in vitro fertilization register.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We included 4846 unilateral TC patients and 48 456 men from the normal population. The 20-year predicted chance of obtaining fatherhood for a 30-year-old man was 39.7% in TC patients compared with 42.5% in the normal population. The chance of obtaining fatherhood was statistically significantly decreased after BEP (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.87, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.78 to 0.97) and BEP + surgery (HR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.63 to 0.87), but not after radiotherapy (HR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.75 to 1.06) or surveillance (HR = 0.95, 95% CI = 0.89 to 1.02). The risk of needing assisted reproductive technology to obtain fatherhood was increased after all treatment modalities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The chance of obtaining fatherhood after TC treatment was substantially higher than previously reported.
