Abstract :	[en] Overall, around 25% of women with inflammatory bowel disease will conceive during their disease. Most of the women with inflammatory bowel disease will have a normal pregnancy and healthy children. However, specific problems may arise related to these pregnancies. This paper reviews what is known on fertility, risk of disease transmission, effect of the disease on the pregnancy and the reverse, delivery, medical follow up and treatment as well as breastfeeding in the setting of inflammatory bowel disease.
