How long after breast implant removal and capsulectomy (no loft) should I wait before IVF embryo transfer?

Asked By:kparker4 in Toms River, New Jersey

Hello, I am 34, had original silicone 500cc under the muscle in 2012. Had reconstruction with same size due to leakage in 2014. I want these implants out of me. Soonest I can have it done is July or August. I am scheduled for an embryo transfer for October. Is that enough time to heal where it won’t effect the embryo attaching? Also can I breastfeed after removal and capsulectomy?
