Male CF sexual and reproductive health (SRH) discussions often ignore issues males may face. Join us for important discussions around hormonal imbalances, infertility, body image issues and sexual function. Our meetings are open forums to have uncomfortable conversations about your sexual reproductive health with providers, researchers, and other males with CF.

Our team is focused on:

• Hosting virtual meetings on SRH topics in which males with CF share experiences and concerns in a supportive environment. Attendees can interact with leading researchers and build community by sharing their stories in a supportive format.
  
• Developing and sharing educational content written by male CF ambassador(s)
• Creating a patient/partner driven SRH screening checklist for clinical use by patients and providers

• Infertility occurs in about 95-98% of males with CF.
• Low testosterone levels affect up to 88% of men with CF compared with up to 12% of their healthy peers.
• 65% of males report sexual dysfunction, primarily due to lack of ejaculate.
• CF can potentially affect the development or function of the prostate.
• More than 80% of men with CF express desire to have children.
  
• Sperm retrieval rates can be as high as 100%.
