Article Synopsis
- Chronic pancreatitis (CP) may affect pregnancy, but the study found that during pregnancy, the frequency of painful episodes significantly decreased compared to the periods before and after pregnancy.
- Among 99 women studied, those with early onset CP experienced fewer pregnancies and had their first child later, yet both early and late onset groups showed similar outcomes in terms of maternal health and fetal safety during pregnancy.
- Overall, the findings suggest that while CP presents challenges, it does not significantly increase the risk of adverse maternal or fetal outcomes, and the clinical management of pain appears to improve during pregnancy.
