Postpone

Detailed Answer:
Hi

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

If you are trying for a pregnancy and had intercourse during fertile period it is better not to undergo surgery and postpone it.

If pregnancy is not intendes you can go ahead with surgery as chances of abortion exists with stress of surgery as well as heavy dose of medicines.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
