Because ventricular septal defect is a type of congenital heart disease, it is currently recommended that patients undergo surgical treatment. With active treatment, this disease can be cured. Once cured, the patient's symptoms will subside, and no murmur can be heard in the precordial area, and it is possible to choose to have children in this situation.

If this condition is not dealt with promptly, it is not recommended to have children. This is because it can cause an excessive load on the heart, especially when the blood volume increases, leading to occurrences of ischemia and hypoxia, which are very dangerous. If treated, especially within a year after surgery, it is possible to consider having children, but there are certain risks.
