Qualitative Research on Women With Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia — CAH  

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Clinical Trial

Official title:
Health-related Quality of Life, Mental Health and Psychotherapeutic Considerations for Women Diagnosed With a Disorder of Sexual Development: Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia

Clinical Trial Summary

This qualitative interview-based study will investigate the impact that living with congenital adrenal hyperplasia has for women in the following areas: health-related quality of life (HRQL), psychological health, and health-seeking behaviors.

Clinical Trial Description

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a chronic-illness requiring life-long treatment and is caused by an inherited enzyme deficiency that leads to an overproduction of hormones produced by the adrenal glands, which in turn, masculinizes the female genitalia before birth. While the mechanisms by which CAH influences physiological development are understood, the impact of this hormonal elevation on health-related quality of life (HRQL), psychological health, and health-seeking behaviors is less clear. This study is guided by three research questions: (1) how does CAH influence HRQL domains (physical, functional, emotional and interpersonally), (2) how does CAH influence the mental health of women diagnosed with CAH, and (3) how does CAH influence decisions to seek help from a counselor? Semi-structured qualitative interviews will be conducted with women with CAH. Interviews will be analyzed through the Consensual Qualitative Research (CQR) methodology. ;
