Welcome to EmpowHER, and thank you so much for writing.
Can you tell me exactly what kind of surgery your doctor is recommending? Have you worn a brace?
With a scoliosis curvature of 45 degrees, does your doctor feel that it will progress without surgery?
And what does your doctor tell you about pregnancy before or after your surgery?
As I understand thoracolumbar scoliosis, your curvature is in the middle of your spine, correct? Are you certain that your lower back pain is due to your scoliosis?
Do you have any other health issues?
We have a similar thread with a lot of information on pregnancy and scoliosis here:
