Hi I am a 33 year old female who had an ASD ostium primum heart repair aged 4.  On a routine check up my doctor stated that he thought I had a heart murmur or at the very least my heart did not sound normal. I told him my ASD repair background and nothing else came of it. Should I be concerned? To add I have no other symptons and am a happy/healthy 33 year old. Would I expect to have a heart murmur or at least an abnormal sounding heart after this repair?  I am particularily interested as my husband and I would like to start a family and wondered in this is something i should pursue before getting pregnant. Thanks
Hi, Heart murmur post ASD correction surgery may be there. they're not a problem unless you have any associated symptom like breathlessness or chest pain or palpitations. Planning a family is not a problem. However, since pregnancy is associated with many hemodynamic changes, I would suggest you to consult a pediatric Cardiologist before going ahead just to be sure everything's fine.
