Intestinal diseases and risks in pregnant women

Women with intestinal weakness are twice as likely to cause adverse effects to the fetus as normal women.

Analyzing the results of 12 studies over the past 20 years, the team at St Mary's Hospital (UK) said women with Crohn's disease (intestinal disorder) and colon inflammation often give birth early. and the child will be less than normal.

This threatens the health of children. Based on this finding, the researchers recommend that women should consider pregnancy and should have regular health checks to prevent intestinal diseases to reduce the risk for babies.
