Hello! The couple's desire to have children is legitimate, but there are two issues that we must discuss carefully before advising you on having a baby:
Your wife needs to go to the doctor to know the exact condition of the stomach. How advanced is the thickening, what is the prognosis for the treatment outcome. You also need to take your wife to see a cardiologist so that the cardiologist can examine and do more echocardiograms to evaluate the status of heart valve regurgitation and other cardiovascular diseases, exercise capacity... When there is enough The information on the doctor will advise the couple about the possibility of having a baby and the risks encountered.
