A member asked:

If ovulation/conception occurred today, would it be safe to have wisdom tooth removed under general anesthesia two days from now?

It depends: On what is most important to you. If pulling the wisdom tooth can wait, you may want to wait. Miscarriages in early pregnancy are frequent and if you had the wisdom tooth pulled under general anesthesia and you do experience a miscarriage, you may blame it on the anesthesia.

General anesthesia: safe for what? Its safe for you but it may not be safe for the zygote. Clearly you have been closely monitoring your ovulation and timing intercourse for optimal chance of pregnancy. General anesthesia may negatively effect your pregnancy. Wisdom tooth is not an acute problem and can certainly be put off until pregnancy is concluded without any risk to your health. Reschedule the wisdom tooth.
