Hello, I’m 27 years old and have been diagnosed with IC. Can this get in the way of my Breast augmentation ? I have the operation in three weeks and I am a bit worried. Any advice would help greatly.
Answer: Interstitial cystitis and augmentation Interstitial cystitis can be quite frustrating to deal with, and varies in severity. There is no firm evidence that it is associated with an infectious agent, and therefore should not prohibit you from having a sucessful surgery. A urinary tract infection, on the other hand , would need to be completely resolved prior to surgery.

Answer: Https://www.realself.com/question/intersistial-cystitis-breast-augmentation?utm_source=subscription&utm_medium=dremail&utm_campa Cystitis in and of itself will not preclude you from having surgery. However, check with your PCP to see if you may also need to add an antibiotic. Cystitis isoften associated with urinary tract infections in which case I would delay surgery until that's taken care of. Good luck, Dr PG

Answer: Medical clearance prior to breast augmentation. mischivd28. I appreciate your concern, but all medical issues and past medical history should be frankly discussed with your plastic surgeon prior to the operation. If there are possible issues, medical clearance by your regular medical doctor should be performed to be certain that it is safe for you to have this operation. Be certain to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck.
