Can anyone please tell me what is the usual PT/INR count that I need to be at in order to proceed with the BBL/lipo surgery?

Question

I have got all my blood tests back & everything is completely normal. Except for my PT/INR. It is at a 1.5 now. I know every doctor is different but i at least need to know a healthy range so that i can prepare myself to get where i need to be.

Sam Jejurikar, MD · Answer

Every doctor will have a different standard, but my cut off for PT/INR is less than 1.3. Meaning, if a patient's PT/INR is 1.3 or greater, I have her meet with a hematologist to evaluate why her clotting factors are abnormal. Once that is done, they can make appropriate interventions to avoid excessive bleeding during surgery.Hope this helps! Sam Jejurikar, MD

Thank you for your question. i would recommend you to visit a hematologist and see what can be done to improve these results for you before having any type of surgery done. Best of luck
