Absolutely.  There is nothing wrong with our reproductive system.  Research has shown that the course of pregnancy and delivery is usually not impaired in women with Crohn’s disease. Even so, women with Crohn’s disease should discuss the matter with their doctors before pregnancy. Most children born to women with Crohn’s disease are unaffected. Children who do get the disease are sometimes more severely affected than adults, with slowed growth and delayed sexual development in some cases.

If you are in the infancy of your disease, it’s always best to get healthy first.

Welcome to My Crohnstipated Life, a space where I share the raw, real, and often humorous journey of living with Crohn’s disease. From unpredictable flares to parenting while managing a chronic illness, this blog is a mix of personal stories, practical tips, and a whole lot of laughter—because sometimes, humor is the best medicine. Whether you’re living with Crohn’s, love someone who is, or just want a peek into the rollercoaster of chronic illness, I’m glad you’re here. 💜 Stay Strong.
