I have had my band for 8 years. Weight loss was not remarkable and at the max of 5-7 kg over all the years. Instead, the band has only caused issues and daily vomiting. Have finally decided to have it removed, as I now suspect it has slipped. I haven’t been able to keep food down for 7 days, despite not having had any fills for years.
However, I have once concern: I am 41 y.o and have no children and planning to become pregnant this year.
How soon after band removal am I allowed to become pregnant?
Thank you
