AIM: Women with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) face specific challenges during pregnancy and childbirth, such as treatment restrictions and the absence of guidelines. This study therefore assessed the status of perinatal management and the needs of women with FH. METHODS: We contacted 240 board-certified FH specialists, and these physicians screened eligible patients for the survey. Two internet-based surveys were conducted between August 2023 and March 2024: one for physicians and one for women with FH. RESULTS: A total of 72 physicians completed the questionnaires. Fifty-seven percent had managed pregnant women with FH, and 64% reported difficulties, including "selecting and adjusting treatment options" and "the absence of guidelines on pregnancy and childbirth for women with FH." Few physicians referred their patients to obstetricians prior to pregnancy. Eighty-three women with FH completed a questionnaire. Among those who had given birth after being diagnosed with FH, the most common problems reported were "could not be treated," "obstetricians' insufficient knowledge of FH," and "insufficient information about pregnancy and delivery for women with FH." Half of these women discontinued treatment for over one year. In addition, 78% of women indicated a need for counseling on pregnancy-related matters. CONCLUSION: Many physicians have reported challenges in managing pregnant women with FH, and some women have lost years of treatment during pregnancy-related periods. Women with FH should receive advice on planned pregnancy and breastfeeding to balance FH treatment with childbearing and parenting, and obstetricians should actively collaborate with physicians.
