How soon can I get a breast reduction surgery after a thyroidectomy?

Before you proceed with your breast reduction I would advise making sure you are in the best overall health possible - I would anticipate that this will take around 3 months after your thyroidectomy, giving you enough time to recover form your previous surgery and for you to be stable on any new medication that you may need to start.
The UK Civil Aviation Authority advise that it is appropriate to fly from 10 days after this kind of surgery, but ideally you would want your wounds to have completely healed and be fully recovered - I would typically advise 4-6 weeks.

Generally it is advisable to wait minimum 3 months between two general anaesthetics, for your specific operation, your surgeon will guide you when its safe to undergo further operation in light of your oral medications you might be starting post surgery.

HelloThank you for the question,You need to wait for at least 6 month before proceeding with the breast reduction, thyroid hormones needs to be checked prior to the surgery.Gall the best with the thyroid operation,

Dear Gentle711084,
you should wait until you are fully healed. Most will recommend you to wait 6 months and then get surgery. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Dear Gentle711084,It's always a good idea after having any big operation to give yourself a couple of months to recover and ensure everything is ok. I normally recommend 3 months for recovery from any procedure.It would also be important to check the your thyroid function tests have normalised.Once these have been checked, there should be no problem having a breast reduction about 3 months after a thyroidectomy. I hope this is helpful.

Once you have fully healed from your thryoid removal and your hormones are well balanced with medication you can consider having your breast reduction. Typically you will want to avoid flying for a few weeks after your breast reduction surgery. Your surgeon will advise you on specifics as opinions may vary.

Hi and welcome to our forum!
Following thyroidectomy, it may take several months for your body to equilibrate with your thyroid medication. Your primary care physician or endocrinologist will determine when it is safe to proceed with an elective cosmetic procedure.
In our practice, we recommend delaying air travel after breast reduction for a period of 2 weeks to lower the potential risk of deep vein thrombosis.
Best wishes...

Hello and thanks for your question. Your procedure can be scheduled after your hormones back to normal. It have to be checked before scheduling the procedure.
