How Do New CFTR Modulators Impact Fertility In Cystic Fibrosis? Have you ever wondered how new treatments can affect fertility in people with cystic fibrosis? In this informative video, we'll explain the recent developments in CFTR modulator therapies and their impact on reproductive health. We'll start by discussing how these medications work to improve the function of the defective CFTR protein, which is central to cystic fibrosis. You'll learn how CFTR modulators can change the environment within the reproductive system, especially for women, by reducing the thickness and acidity of cervical mucus, thereby increasing the chances of conception. We'll also explore the experiences of women taking highly effective CFTR modulators like elexacaftor, tezacaftor, and ivacaftor, often called Trikafta, and how many have reported increased fertility and successful pregnancies since starting treatment. Additionally, the benefits of overall health improvements and better lung function will be covered, highlighting how these factors contribute to pregnancy readiness. For men with cystic fibrosis, we'll explain why fertility challenges persist despite these treatments and what this means for reproductive options. We'll also discuss the importance of medical guidance and counseling for women considering pregnancy, emphasizing the need for careful planning and supervision to ensure the health of both mother and baby.
