CROP | Creatine Research: Outcomes in Pregnancy

CROP

An International Pregnancy Registry

Creatine use and pregnancy: help us build the evidence

Dietary creatine supplementation is increasingly common, yet little is known about its use or safety during pregnancy because pregnant people are rarely included in clinical research.

Researchers at Hudson Institute of Medical Research and Monash University in Australia are establishing an international registry to address this significant evidence gap.

We are excited to soon launch CROP Global, an international, participant-reported observational pregnancy registry.

The aim of this registry is to gather information on creatine supplementation before and during pregnancy and to examine its association with maternal health, pregnancy outcomes, birth outcomes, and neonatal and child well-being.

The registry will record pregnancies both with and without creatine supplementation. Data from those who did not take creatine are vital, as they provide a key comparison group.

If you would like to be informed when the study has commenced, or to receive further information, please fill out the form below.

Thank you for your interest and support.
