Can I Get Pregnant After Been Diagnosed With Pancreatitis And Gall Bladder Removal?

I was diagnosed with pancreatitis after having a gallstone stuck in my bile duct. I had my gall bladder removed and after having a year of problems with my pancreas, I am no longer on any medication nor have problems. My question is if I could get pregnant again or would that affect my pancreas?

Hi,

I guess your concern is about that can you get pregnant after been diagnosed with pancreatitis and with the history of gall bladder removal.my straight forward answer is -YES, you can. There is no relation between the gall bladder removal and pancreatitis with getting pregnancy. But one thing I want to tell you that once pregnancy occurs then pancreatitis can create problems during pregnancy like pain in abdomen, vomiting etc. If you don't take care the pancreatitis.

If you get pregnant again, then pregnancy itself could not do any harm to your pancreas. You can get pregnant again if you are nder reproductive age group ( age 15-45 in which chances of getting pregnant is high) and you are having regular menses then you have DOUBLE CHANCES of getting pregnant.

1. Relax as you can get pregnant with the pancreatitis and with the history of gall bladder removal in your past.

2. Try to do coitus in fertile period ( it is from 10th to 16th day of menses during which chances of getting pregnant is high). So try to do more coitus during this period.

3. If you are in hurry then visit a nearby gynecologist or infertility specialist. He/she can help you.

I hope the above is enough informative, useful and helpful for you.

Regards,
Dr. Sudha Rani Panagar
