Is Normal Pregnancy Possible After An Abdominal Surgery?
I just had an abdominal surgery done from my naval to bikini bone for a suspected ectopic pregnancy. After they opened up they found nothing in my ovaries after a laparoscopic examination, now two days after operation they say am pregnant according to the blood tests is it safe to carry the pregnancy after this procedure.
As per your history, yes, you can carry pregnancy but under gynecologist observation in later half of pregnancy. You may require regular follow up with gynecologist and ultrasound abdomen to know about the baby status. Generally, abdominal pressure may cause problem during delivery, so do regular follow up with gynecologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
