| Core Tip |
Patients should be encouraged to postpone conception until their Crohn’s disease (CD) is in remission. Monitoring of nutritional status remains important in patients with small bowel CD; folic acid, vitamin D and vitamin B12 may all need to be supplemented. Most drug treatments are safe in pregnancy, based on observational data, including 5-aminosalicylic acid, thiopurines, anti-tumor necrosis factor, and anti-integrins. Methotrexate should be avoided due to its teratogenicity. Cesarean section is only indicated from a CD perspective in women with active perianal disease at the time of delivery; all others can have a normal vaginal delivery. |
