The First Step in Family Planning
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is an inherited autosomal recessive disorder that primarily affects the lungs, pancreas, and digestive system, although it can involve multiple organs.
Cystic Fibrosis Carrier Screening is one of the genetic tests recommended for all women who are planning a pregnancy or are currently pregnant. If the mother is identified as a carrier, carrier testing is also recommended for the father.
