This study is to use gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist leuprolide prior myeloablative hematopoietic cell transplantation to prevent ovarian dysfunction in post-menarchal women.
The primary objective is to determine the effect of GnRH agonists on the incidence of ovarian failure.
The secondary objectives are
* to determine how effective GnRH agonists are at suppressing menses during
* to determine the incidence and timing of resumption of menstrual cycles after HCT
* to determine the incidence and timing of resumption of normal FSH and LH levels after HCT
* to determine the incidence of normal AMH levels after HCT
* to determine the effect of GnRH agonists on immune reconstitution after HCT
* to assess the safety and tolerability of GnRH agonists in the context of HCT
A total of 47 patients will be accrued in this study.

You may be eligible if
Interventional Arm:
* Eligible for myeloablative allogenic or autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT)
* Post-menarchal female \< or = 50 years of age
* Normal antimullerian hormone (AMH) level and/or follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)/leuprolide (LH) levels for age/stage of puberty
Observational Arm:
* Eligible for reduced intensity allogeneic HCT
* Post-menarchal female ≤ 50 years of age
* Normal AMH level and/or FSH/LH for age/stage of puberty
You may not be if
All Arms:
* History of ovarian cancer
* Surgical resection of one or both ovaries. Prior hysterectomy is allowed as long as the ovaries are intact.
* Use of GnRH agonist in last 12 months will exclude patients if lab results are not available to demonstrate adequate ovarian function prior to initiation of GnRH therapy.
