Answers:   

Why enjoy I be opinion sick lately?

hi sru, as a female crohn's survivor, yes, some females w/IBD report that their crohn's symptoms worsen right in the past and even during their period.

if you go to the Crohn's and colitis website, here is more information on it.

fyi: females w/Crohn's should avoid any type of hormonal medications (ex-birthcontrol) b/c when we experience a flareup, the blood tends to become "sticky" thus cause clots. when a hormone is in our system, it increases the chance over 75% to throw a clot contained by the lungs, brain, or legs or even a heart attack. I've already had 4 clots. 1 DVT in my right leg at age 21, 5 yrs. next another clot same leg , 3 yrs. ago I had a stroke due to a 12" clot on brain, and 2 yrs. ago a DVT in moved out leg.

My GI told me about the dangers of hormonal birth control & the risk it poses to Crohn's pts. so my husband and I intellectual about NFP from a nurse practitioner via a local hospital. It's safe, jammy to learn and use, it won't interfere w/my meds plus I can tell when I am have an actual crohn's flare or just a hormonal flare before and during that time of the month. For me, it's one smaller number pill to take and it is much healthier to use than anything else on the souk.

If your CD symptoms get worse, see if your primary MD can prescribe a muscle relaxer to help w/the cramps. I use Flexeril and it have worked wonders. good luck.
