Can I have a tummy tuck with fibroids?

Thanks for your questionYes, you can have a tummy tuck if you have fibroids, but it would make sense to get an idea from your Ob/Gyn as to whether your fibroids are likely to require surgery. If there is a high likelihood you may want to have the fibroids taken care of first. Fibroid surgery can be taken care of after tummy tuck but it might impact your aesthetic outcome.Hope this helps.Best wishes.

Thank you for your question. It is possible to have a tummy tuck if you have fibroids.  You should discuss the treatment plan and the likelihood of needing future surgery with your OB/GYN.  Some fibroids require no treatment, others can be treated with endovascular ablation without surgery, and more severe ones require direct removal or hysterectomy.  If you are in the severe category, you may want to delay your tummy tuck until they have been treated or consider a tummy tuck at the same time.  Combining procedures can be done if the risk of a blood clot is managed appropriately.
