Pregnancy Concerns in Women With Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

UM Women with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have more complications during pregnancy than women without IBD, regardless of whether the disease is active or inactive. Women with inactive IBD have more preterm births and more complications during labor and delivery than women without IBD. Disease severity also affects outcomes; preterm births were approximately 3 times more common among women with moderately to highly active disease than among those with inactive IBD.
