Overview

Research shows increased pregnancy rates in women with cystic fibrosis, indicating the need for preconception guidance and monitoring.

Key Points

  • Pregnancy rates among women with cystic fibrosis have doubled due to improved health outcomes from new treatments.
  • CFTR modulators have enhanced life expectancy and health for cystic fibrosis patients, influencing family planning choices.
  • Preconception consultation with maternal-fetal specialists is vital to manage increased risks during pregnancy.
  • Breastfeeding with CFTR modulators is encouraged, but infants should be monitored for side effects from medication transfer.
