A member asked:
My husband needs a surgery soon and we want to try to get pregnant. is it possible that general anesthesia has any effect on sperm, is it safe to try to get pregnant quickly after surgery?

General anesthesia per se would not affect fertility. The reason for surgery may be a consideration more than anesthesia. Wish you and your husband good health!

In general yes. It depends on the level of stress and the nature of surgery too. Wish you good luck in doing so.
