About this book

This guide provides the answers to patient questions that are frequently posed to practitioners who care for pregnant and non-pregnant women with GI and liver disorders. The first part of the text outlines gender-based differences in GI disorders, including GERD, liver disease, pancreatic disease, IBD, and IBS.

The text concludes with a chapter on the safety of GI procedures for the pregnant patient.
