I just found out I have gallstones from an ultrasound but haven't had any bad pain yet. Should I get my gallbladder removed before trying for a baby? If surgery is the best option, how long should I wait before getting pregnant and are there any risks to my pregnancy later on?
If you have gallstones but aren't experiencing any symptoms, you don't necessarily need to have your gallbladder removed before trying for a baby. However, it's important to discuss your situation with your doctor, especially if you're planning to conceive, as gallstones can sometimes cause complications during pregnancy
