Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: This study addresses a critical gap in current research by focusing primarily on women who were already mothers when given a diagnosis of Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Syndrome (HBOC), caused by pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) variants in BRCA1/2. While extensive literature exists on general experiences of HBOC and pre-parenthood decision-making, the unique challenges faced by mothers...
