Zwangerschap na bariatrische chirurgie

After bariatric surgery, the weight gain during pregnancy is significantly less than for women who have not undergone bariatric surgery. It is not desirable to lose too much weight during pregnancy. When in doubt, you can always discuss this with your us, your gynecologist, nurse specialist, dietician or doctor. What complications can occur during pregnancy after stomach reduction? The risk of premature birth, bowel hernia or bowel obstruction is slightly increased after a gastric bypass. Preventive measures are taken during maagbypasschirurgie that considerably reduce the risk of bowel hernia. We usually advise women who are eligible for a stomach reduction operation and who have a (future) child wish to undergo Gastric Sleeve surgery, because the chance of premature birth is reduced and there is no chance of bowel hernia after this operation. The risk of weight gain after a pregnancy and a stomach reduction operation seems limited.
