3 answers to Do You Continue to Bloat Pre and During Menustration After Tummy Tuck?
+1
Bloating with Menses
Cyclical bloating, as with menses, is unrelated to tummy tuck. Swelling with tummy tuck or abdominoplasty will resolve exponentially as you heal. If you are concerned at all, you should visit your surgeon for an examination.
Good Luck.
+1
Menstruation
Sometimes the best way to answer this would be to wait and see. If bloating or swelling fluctuates with menses, then it obviously would play a roll. Sometimes it can be both.
+1
Tummy tuck
The tummy tuck procedure will not change any of the hormonal symptoms the you experience with your menstrual cycle
