Is it safe to have breast augmentation during your menstrual cycle? (Photo)

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph and best wishes on your upcoming procedure.  It is safe to have a BA during your menstrual cycle as there are no increased risks attributed to it.  That said you may have a bit more discomfort so be sure to discuss this with your surgeon.  Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. Yes, it is completely safe. Please speak to your plastic surgeon if you have any concerns. 

It's safe for you to have surgery during your period. However, since you mentioned that your breasts are sore during menstruation, you can consider scheduling your surgery at another time. Some women find that they become extra sensitive to discomfort during their period, and this may make the surgical experience more difficult.  

In my experience, none of my 6500 patients have ever had a problem having their breast augmentation surgery while on their menstrual cycle. Good luck.Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Author

Hello and thank you for your question.  The
best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation.  Having surgery during your menstrual cycle will not cause any problems.  This is very common.   Make sure you specifically look
at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery
performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results.   The most
important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend
that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who
can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.

Dear neela grappie,Menstruation at the time of surgery is not known to cause any complication.  You can proceed as planned.  Good luck!

It is often difficult to reconcile your preferred surgical date, the surgeon's schedule and your menstrual cycle. Therefore, it is quite common to have surgery during your menstrual cycle. If your breasts very engorged and painful and it's possible to delay your surgery it may be preferable, but that is usually not the case. . 

It should not be a problem. I have operated on many patients that have been in the middle of their cycle.
