Can I Get Safe Pregnancy After Having Laparotomy?

Is Pregnancy safe after Laparotomy? I had a laparotomy due to ovarian cysts removal on 11th August 2011 recently and my right ovary was removed. I plan to get married this November and get pregnant right away. My worry is, how soon should I get pregnant after laparotomy? is it safe? Can the 17cm scar tolerate the stretch of a bulging tummy?

Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
It is not going to create any problem in pregnancy because skin has enormous capacity to stretch.
it wont affect the outcome and you can even bear twins with this scar.
So just relax and enjoy your married life.
