Crohn’s disease has a genetic predisposition to be passed on to children, and the exact chance of inheritance cannot be determined at this time. According to clinical studies, the incidence of Crohn’s disease in the immediate family is higher than in the general population.
Crohn’s disease is a group of chronic non-specific inflammatory diseases of the intestinal tract, the cause of which has not yet been elucidated. The clinical causes of Crohn’s disease are not well understood and are related to environmental, genetic and intestinal microecological factors. Therefore, whether or not Crohn’s disease will necessarily be passed on to a child depends on environmental factors, intestinal microecology, and immune imbalances.
Therefore, people with a family history of Crohn’s disease should go to the hospital for testing to determine whether they have Crohn’s disease.
