If my husband is a chronic crohn's patient and I wish to become pregnant are there any problems we should be aware of?
There are some medical reasons why a crohn's patient would have a problem, a lack of libido is sometimes a hindrance since it is difficult to "get in the mood" when chronic pain and urgent diarrhea occupy most of the patients waking hours. Take advantage of a remission period when your husband is feeling well. If he has active Crohn's disease you may have a more difficult time getting pregnant than you would when it's in remission.If your husband wants to become a father and is taking sulfasalazine (Azulfidine) for Crohn's disease, he should ask his doctor to change his medicine. Sulfasalazine causes a lower than normal sperm count. The drug Methotrexate is deadly to fetuses. If your husband is taking methotrexate for Crohn's disease, he should stop taking it for three months before attempting to conceive a child. Women with Crohn's disease should avoid methotrexate before getting pregnant and while pregnant. See the related linksbelow for information on pregnancy and Crohn's Disease.
