Pregnancy After Hernia Repair Surgery
after a hernia repair surgery how long gap should be given before the pregnancy
Tue, 30 Aug 2011
Hi welcome to Healthcaremagic
Hi christina, at least 6 months gap is required between hernia and pregnancy..
this period is required because the mesh, they have placed needs time to get fibrosed and get strengthened.. also you need to take the opinion of the surgeon and confirm that you abdomen is normal...
Hope I have answered your question..
Takecare...
