Can Pregnancy Make my Nose Swell More After Rhinoplasty?

It is common for women to see nasal swelling during pregnancy, and it tends to worsen during your 3rd trimester. This could occur whether or not you have had Rhinoplasty Surgery. This should completely resolve after you give birth.

Some say this is an indication you may be having a girl...?

All the best to you and your baby.

Hi,

The total body volume increases during pregnancy. It is very common for you to produce and retain more fluid when you are pregnant, so that could definitely be contributing to the increased swelling in your nose. The fact that you notice that you are more swollen in the mornings likely has to do with the fact that your head is in a more dependent position as you lie in bed all night. So in the morning, you notice this extra volume in your nose and face. Throughout the day, the fluid works its way down your body due to the effects of gravity as you walk around and sit upright. The swelling should improve after the pregnancy. Hope this helps! Congratulations and best wishes for the rest of the pregnancy!

Yes, it does due to fluid retention while you are pregnant. Fortunately, time will take care of this.
