You need to have to ask a medical doctor. Folks in here will guess an answer just to get two points.
A doctor should’ve checked for pregnancy and I doubt they would have operated with a harmful anaesthetic if also pregnant. But I am not a physician – speak to one.
As he is 15 and you worry he could have a mental challenge, which impliedly did not manifest itself till lately, I wonder if he is fine & the ‘problem’ is just teenage rebellion. If so be cautious – telling a teenager that you consider he has a mental trouble could result in him psychological troubles and raise the teenage rebellion. I’m not saying you would say that to him.
I do not know what it is as I do not know him. If you are genuinely concerned, only a physician can diagnose a challenge.

I’m not sure what would happen. However, anesthetics are not good for unborn babies and can have serious side affects. Sorry, I don’t remember what they are but I thought you should know.
