Phillipa, the ovaries are fast-dividing cells so they are affected by chemotherapy. Most women go into temporary menopause during chemo, and depending on their age it may be permanent. My periods stopped immediately and hot flashes started up. I was told it's 80% probable I will stay in menopause afterward. I was close anyway, probably would have been there in a year or two.
