Sexual & reproductive health in CF – A shared responsibility

Sexual and reproductive health (SRH) in cystic fibrosis (CF) is an expansive field that has recently gained more attention with the improved fertility and longevity of our CF population in the era of CFTR modulator therapy. People with cystic fibrosis (pwCF) – both men and women - have identified this field as a priority area of interest for clinicians to focus research and educational efforts [1]. SRH in CF is a broad topic encompassing not just fertility and sexuality, but also health outcomes associated with SRH events such as pregnancy/parenthood, and health services delivery of SRH needs in the unique context of specialized CF care centers.
