Would Surgery For Hole In The Heart During Childhood Have An Impact On Married Life?
I am a female age 25. Was diagnosed with hole in heart at birth which was surgically cured successfully at age 7. I have had a normal health since then and have undertaken all sorts of physical endurance and sports and activities like dance etc. Am getting married now and would like to know if this surgery would have any bearing on married life, safe pregnancy etc.
No, the condition which you had since it has already been treated at an early age should not have bearing on your married life nor on your pregnancies. The best approach would be to undergo a yearly evaluation with an Echocardiography and prior to delivery to ensure things are alright.
