u/scofie_cf

Just wondering whether or not there might be a link between CF and earlier onset of perimenopause. I appear to be well into 6 months of it at 37, and I feel like a lot of other CF women are the same.

But my friendship group are 45+ with very few symptoms. And the genetic link is also not there in my family for early menopause.

Im kind of wondering whether it’s a stress or drug thing?

I’ve been in Alyftrek for about 3 weeks now. swapped from Kalydeco. So far all good, but I’m a funny shade of grey so just waiting on liver results.

Question though, I’ve been having pretty horrible bowels. Like… uh oh I have to go right now or it’s not going to be pretty! Is this something that you who have been on trikafta/alyftrek noticed? if so, does it go away in time?
