Is it still possible for me to have a breast reduction after having an abortion?

Hi Considerate 576556, thank you for your question regarding whether it’s possible for you to undergo a breast reduction after an abortion. If your abortion was uncomplicated, I believe you can undergo your breast reduction. Before you undergo your breast reduction procedure, it is important for you to notify your plastic surgeon that you had an abortion. It is important that they know and realize this before they start the surgery. If you did not notice any change in the size of your breasts during the pregnancy, I do not see any reason why you cannot undergo a breast reduction after an abortion. It may be wise to get some blood tests just to be sure that there is nothing abnormal after your abortion. However, in general, you can undergo a breast reduction after an abortion. Good luck. I hope this helps answer your question regarding whether it’s possible to have a breast reduction after an abortion.
Sincerely,

J. Timothy Katzen, MD, FASMBS, FICS

If you haven't had any changes to your overall health since your procedure then it should be fine to proceed with your breast reduction. Make sure you also go over this with your surgical team.

You can have a breast reduction. At only 5 weeks pregnant, most women don’t notice much change in their breasts besides new tenderness to the touch or possible slight fullness that signals to them something may be going on like pregnancy. Some women don’t even notice any change in their breasts at all. You were not pregnant long enough to cause significant changes to your breast. If you would like to be seen for a consultation, reach out to my office. Smith Plastic Surgery 702-838-2455

Hi! This is Arzu from Dr. Caner Kacmaz Clinic. It is recomended to have a hormonal analysis before the surgery and if every thing is okay you can have the procedure. For more information do not hasitate to contact us.

You should be able to have the reduction since you were very early in the pregnancy. However, your urine pregnancy test will need to be negative. An abortion is not the best birth control method.

Hello. After five weeks of pregnancy, you can have a breast reduction. Anyway, consult with your doctor and have a complete exam before going ahead. Consult a board-certified plastic surgeon for a physical exam. Best wishes.
