2021, Clinics in Chest MedicineCitation Excerpt :Because CF is now largely diagnosed at birth, women cope with challenges related to hormonal shifts and SRH throughout their lives in the setting of this chronic illness (Fig. 1). The current model of health care delivery in the CF setting inadequately addresses the needs of women, resulting in large gaps in SRH care use and knowledge and suboptimal health outcomes.3–5 CF providers agree that they have a central role in the SRH care of these patients,6 but most do not routinely address these topics in their practice, nor do most feel comfortable doing so.7
Hormonal Contraception Effects on Pulmonary Function in Adolescents with Cystic Fibrosis
2020, Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent GynecologyCitation Excerpt :Thus, more and more women with CF use hormonal contraception (HC), some starting early during adolescence. Few studies address sexuality and contraception in adult women with CF and even fewer in adolescent women with CF. However, a 1995 study showed comparable rates of sexual activity in CF patients compared with the general population, but as found in other patients with chronic diseases, CF patients used less effective methods of contraception, resulting in unwanted or unplanned pregnancies.3 In 2015, Rousset Jablonski et al reported that in 120 CF women of childbearing age (18-48 years old), only 64% were using contraception.4
