Eating disorders and body image in cystic fibrosis
2021, Journal of Clinical and Translational EndocrinologyGynecologic health care for females with cystic fibrosis
2021, Journal of Clinical and Translational EndocrinologyCitation Excerpt :More recently, Kazmerski et al. reported that mean age of menarche was slightly delayed in a survey of American females with and without CF (13.1 ± 1.3 vs. 12.4 ± 0.05 years); 29% of those with CF reported a perceived delay in puberty compared to their peers [8]. Delayed menarche and puberty may be associated with poor communication with parents about SRH, as well as other psychosocial issues, among adolescents with CF [9,10]. Older reports documented high prevalence (>50%) of menstrual irregularities including oligomenorrhea, primary or secondary amenorrhea, and abnormal uterine bleeding in females with CF [4,11].

2011, Journal of Cystic FibrosisCitation Excerpt :Although the use of HFA is widely accepted, it has limitations. Firstly, CF is associated with a delay in skeletal maturation [10,11], particularly in adolescence [12]. In these situations, the use of HFA might result in misclassification of height.
