What is frequency of births with crohns disease?
The fertility rates for women with Crohns disease are not much different from those without Crohns. Women with Crohn's disease should also be aware that pregnancy often results in normal gestation and that children are not more likely to have the disease just because mom has it. If a woman with Crohns is in remission at the time of conception, she has no greater risk for a disease flare than a woman who is not pregnant. A woman with active disease at the time of conception has a one-third chance of going into remission, a one-third chance of staying at the same disease activity level, and a one-third chance of getting worse during pregnancy. There is no evidence to suggest that inactive Crohn's disease has any effect on either female or male fertility, or on a woman's ability to carry a pregnancy to term and have a vaginal delivery.
Can you have a baby if you have crohns?

Did Dennis Kucinich suffer from Crohn's disease and cure it by eating vegan?
No, sorry. No one is cured no matter what you read. Crohns has no cure. Crohns patients have remissions and these can last for years but once you are diagnosed with Crohns disease you have it forever. A simple blood test can be done on even a patient in full remission and will always show up positive for Crohns. If it were that simple all of us who suffer from Crohns would gladly eat Vegan, it would be a great alternative to not eating at all during a flare up.
Can people with crohns disease use chia seeds?
During a flare up, consuming seeds of any kind is a bad idea. Active Crohns disease causes the bowel to thicken and narrow and seeds that try to pass through the narrowed bowel can get stuck causing an obstruction.
Does having Crohn's disease when pregnant usually result in a premature birth?
NO, absolutely not. With regular prenatal care, predominantly for nutritional support and close fetal monitoring a pregnant Crohns patient should experience a normal pregnancy. Supplementation with extra iron, folate, and protein during pregnancy is encouraged because maternal loss of these nutrients can occur quickly during a flare. Most medications used to treat Crohn's disease are considered low risk during pregnancy. Active disease poses more risk to the fetus than most Crohn's medications, so the benefits of treatment outweigh the risks. Whatever medications helped maintain remission before pregnancy should be continued during pregnancy with the exception of methotrexate or antibiotics.

Does crohns disease disqualify you from being a fighter pilot?
This very much depends on your military doctor if you are already in the armed forces. Crohns disease can be in remission for years, but can flare at anytime. Depending on the severity of the flare up and when it happens it would not be a good idea to be in the cockpit of an aircraft at the time. You certainly would be grounded during such a flare as the medications used to control a Crohns attack can affect your performance both physically and mentally.

Because of the nature of Crohns disease it may stay in remission long enough to serve out your hitch but don't count on it. Crohns can flare up anytime and stress is a big factor. Army doctors will have access to the latest meds used to control the symptoms but it is not curable. You will want to know where every latrine is during a flare up and it will disrupt your daily routines at the most inappropriate times. Check out the link for a US Army Staff Sargent with Crohns.
