For many women living with multiple sclerosis (MS), questions about reproductive health, like pregnancy, family planning, and breastfeeding, can be especially difficult to navigate. These concerns often arise during the prime reproductive years, when MS is most commonly diagnosed, and yet many women report feeling underserved or even overlooked when seeking information and support.

While research on MS and reproductive health is growing, much of it remains concentrated in high-income countries. In many parts of the world, especially in resource-limited settings, women with MS (WwMS) continue to face significant barriers in accessing clear, reliable, and relevant information about their health.

To better understand this gap, we’ve launched two surveys:

• One for Women with Multiple Sclerosis (available in multiple languages)
• One for Healthcare professionals involved in Multiple Sclerosis Care (in English)
