Answer: Okay after you have been cleared If there is a treatable cause, it needs to be found and treated first .Once there are no further tests or treatments needed, your regular doctor PCP or hematologist can give you medical clearance for an elective procedure .Always let your surgeon know about any medical condition you have or have had. Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom, M.D.

Answer: Anemia It would be unsafe to proceed with elective surgery such as a breast reduction now. Follow up with your primary care physician to thoroughly evaluate your anemia and get that corrected. Once that has occurred, it would be appropriate to go for a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and discuss breast reduction.
