Terrified of aortic valve replacement surgery

It's more important on what you want. Yes the surgery will keep you alive, but do you risk a pregnancy? If you want a family that is a problem but you can adopt or have a surrogate! The surgery suggestion sounds pretty serious, but it is all up to you. You are the one to decide. You are the only one who can plan your future❤️ be strong!

I think it's important to know which scares you more. If you have plans on getting pregnant, or scared that you'll accidentally get pregnant, the surgery might be the safer option. If you're more scared of the surgery, you can always find other options instead of pregnancy like adoption, getting an IUD, etc. I understand this is a very scary and tough decision. So think about it rationally when you make it.
