Does appendicitis surgery affect pregnancy?

Appendicitis surgery usually does not affect pregnancy. Appendicitis surgery itself is mainly to deal with the disease of appendix, remove the inflamed appendix. If the operation process is smooth, the postoperative recovery is good, and generally does not cause substantial damage to the reproductive system. In most cases, the surgical site is limited to the right lower abdomen, and there is a certain distance from the female reproductive organs such as uterus and ovaries, which will not affect their normal structure and function. Of course, any surgery has certain risks and potential complications.

However, if there are no serious complications during appendicitis surgery, such as severe abdominal infection spreading to the pelvis, the impact on pregnancy is minimal. A comprehensive physical examination before pregnancy, including gynecological examinations, can detect any problems in time and take appropriate measures to further ensure the safety and smoothness of pregnancy.
