A randomly distributed cross-sectional study was designed, where patients were collected from several different hospitals in Iraq. The statistical analysis program, IBM SOFT SPSS 22, in addition to Microsoft Excel 2013, was relied upon to analyze the data and statistical differences in this study. The results found in this study were Age (Mean±SD) 26±4.4,Pre-operation weight (kg) 98.1±8.8, Pre-operation BMI 33.8±2.6 In our current study, it Distributed of patients according to the type of surgery, and It was found that surgery for dental caries was the most common in this study of 40 patients and. It was also evaluated outcomes delivery in female Iraqi patients. Prematurity was found for ten patients with 14.2%, Cesarean section for 30 patients with 42.8%, and Antepartum hemorrhage for five patients with 7.14 %, where in our current study, the quality of life for Iraqi patients was assessed between postoperative and pre-operative. Surgery during pregnancy is accompanied by an increased risk of complications during childbirth, but the risk of the surgery itself is relatively small. We conclude that surgeries not related to childbirth increase the risk of miscarriage by a percentage, the risk of giving birth to a stillborn child by a percentage, the risk of premature birth by a percentage, and the risk of lower-than-normal birth weight by a percentage. They also increase the risk of undergoing a caesarean section by a percentage and the mother’s death during childbirth by a very small percentage
