Rates of depression in IBD are 15-35%
A comparison of lifetime prevalence suggests
higher rates of panic, generalized anxiety, and
obsessive-compulsive disorders and major
depression and lower rates of social anxiety
and bipolar disorders in the IBD sample than
in national samples in the United States1
Twice the rate of depression as in controls
Depression reduces health-related quality of
life and increases self-perceived functional
disability irrespective of symptom severity
1. Walker Am J Gastroenterol 2008:103:1989-1997
Many patients with IBD are young and
do not have co-morbid illnesses
The gastroenterologist will often serve
as their only physician
Patients with IBD receive less
preventive health services than general
primary care patients1
Selby Inflamm Bowel Dis. 2008:14:253-258
364 patients from the PIANO registry
Utilization obtained via questionnaires
at 1 year post-delivery

pregnancy

women with IBD

Lees (Scotland) 362 IBD women;1644 controls: no
difference
2 Population based studies
Singh - >10 OCP, CS + AZA increased risk OR
1.41, CI 1.09-1.81
Hutfless - no increased risk cervical cancer (OR
1.45 CI 0.74-2.84)
All women <age 26 with IBD should get HPV
vaccination
HPV: 0, 2, 6 mos. for females 9-26 yrs.
Recommended age at 11-12 years
Should men be vaccinated as well?
The 3 dose series of HPV4 may be
administered to males 9 through 26 years of
age to reduce their likelihood of acquiring
genital warts
Increased anal dysplasia with perianal CD
High Risk behavior
Fecundity:
Fertility:
the ability to have children
fecundation - aka fertilization (natural or IVF)
the ability to conceive & become pregnant through
normal sexual activity
Infertility:
failure to conceive s/p 1 yr of intercourse
background rate – 1 in 7 couples (14%)
Women
In UC, normal fertility overall
Voluntary childlessness higher in IBD patients
Women with active Crohn’s disease may be at risk
Post-surgical patients with pouches at increased
risk for infertility
Men
Sulfasalazine causes reversible sperm
abnormalities in 60%, not dose related
Erectile dysfunction secondary to depression
Meta analysis regarding risk of
infertility
Eight studies included in analysis
RR of infertility for medically treated UC
was 15%, and 48% after IPAA
There were no procedural factors
identified that consistently affected risk
Colectomy with ileorectal
anastomosis preserves female fertility

Medication choices are similar
Avoid new aza/6mp in pregnancy
Avoid mnzl, CS in T1
Laboratory/Stool Tests
LFT’s (Alk Phos), ESR may be elevated
Albumin may be low; mild anemia normal
C. dificile
Imaging
MRI preferred to CT, though no gadolinium in T1
Ultrasound!
Endoscopy: Unsedated flexible sigmoidoscopy
Surgery: Indications similar to non-pregnant patient ;
T2 best time
Delivery should be at the discretion of the
obstetrician
Most women with IBD can have an uncomplicated
vaginal delivery
Exceptions:
Women with active perianal disease should have a
cesarean section. Women with inactive perianal
disease may deliver vaginally without increased
complications (1)
Women with an ileoanal J pouch should consider
cesarean section, though vaginal delivery is
possible (2)
Preserve sphincter function and continence later in life

Spontaneous vaginal birth vs. C section
(n=1011)
Operative vaginal birth significantly
increased the odds for all pelvic floor
disorders, especially prolapse
Stress incontinence (OR 2.9, 1.5-5.5)
Prolapse to or beyond the hymen (OR 5.6, 95% CI
2.2-14.7)
(OR 7.5, 95% CI 2.7-20.9).
Forceps deliveries and perineal lacerations,
but not episiotomies, were associated with
pelvic floor disorders 5-10 years after a first
delivery.

• Fetal 6-TGN concentrations correlated positively
with maternal 6-TGN levels (p<0.0001).
• No 6-MMP was detected in the newborns, except 1
with pancytopenia and high alk phos (severe preeclampsia)
• 60% had anemia at birth: Median Hb 9.25 [9.259.60].
• 6-TGN 230 vs. 90 in infants with anemia
• No major congenital abnormalities were observed.

Infliximab:
Adalimumab
Study of 10 mothers on IFX
In all cases, infant and cord IFX level were greater than
mother. 6 months to clear
Study of 10 mothers on ADA
In all cases, infant and cord ADA level was greater than
mother. Up to 4 months to clear
¾ pts who stopped ADA 35 days prior to delivery had a
flare
Certolizumab
Study of 10 mothers
In all cases, infant and cord levels were less than 2
mcg/ml even if mom dosed the week of delivery

Debate: stop drug early or continue scheduled?
Last dose infliximab at week 32 weeks gestation
No real delay if patient gets next dose immediately after
delivery (assume delivery around week 40 gestation)
Last dose adalimumab at week 36-38
Stopping earlier may lead to flares
If needed, can continue throughout on schedule
Continue certolizumab throughout pregnancy
If mom flares, treat her!
No live virus vaccine for first 6 months for infants
exposed to IFX or ADA during pregnancy
Never switch drugs during pregnancy purely for
placental transfer issues
Mahadevan U. Am J Gastroenterol. 2011 Feb;106(2):214-23
Obstetrician:
Most IBD medications are low risk in
pregnancy (exception methotrexate) and can
be continued during pregnancy and lactation
Mode of delivery is per OB discretion except
with active perianal disease at the time of
delivery and perhaps J Pouch
Pediatrician
No live virus vaccines in the first 6 months if
infant exposed to infliximab or adalimumab
in utero
All other vaccines can be given on schedule
Monitor for infections
