The possibility of messing up the period after nose surgery
Is there a possibility of messing up the period after nose surgery?
Although performing surgery during period is completely safe and women who are in their menstrual period are not facing the risk of side effects.. But there is a possibility of messing up the period after nose job.
Doctors usually mention that you should prepare yourself for a possible change in cycle time after surgery. Because any stress, such as surgical stress, can affect the level of hormones in the body, especially the sex hormones estrogen and progesterone, and change the order of the menstrual cycle..
Rhinoplasty during menstruation
Although rhinoplasty during menstruation is potentially safe, some surgeons refuse to perform the procedure if you have your period 3 days before surgery, on the date of surgery, or up to 3 days after surgery.. Because they believe:
- Some studies have shown that hormonal levels during menstruation increase the likelihood of scarring and poor wound healing after surgery..
- There is a risk of increased surgical complications such as hematoma or blood clots.
- Pains such as back pain, muscle cramps, and abdominal pain, which are usually associated with menstruation, make it more difficult for the patient to bear the pain of rhinoplasty..
- Menstrual side effects such as bloating, fluid retention, diarrhea, and constipation may affect the quality of surgery and lengthen the recovery period after surgery..
For this reason, we recommend that you ask your surgeon's opinion about menstruation in nose surgery during the consultation session..
