Abstract
Women with phenylketonuria (PKU) should maintain blood phenylalanine (phe) concentration within the recommended range before and during pregnancy to prevent maternal PKU syndrome (MPKUS) in their offspring. Women who gave birth to children with MPKUS symptoms were more likely to report elevated phe concentration before pregnancy, and barriers to accessing components of their dietary management during pregnancy, including blood phe testing, medical food, modified low-protein foods, and healthcare visits with PKU specialists.
