Based on ultrasounds and hormonal testing, I have somewhat low ovarian reserve for my age -32 turning 33 in May. I will likely not be trying for a baby for another 3-4 years. Would getting a septorhinoplasty in the meantime hurt my fertility? I have heard that inflammation anywhere in the body can harm fertility, and I know that the recovery process for rhinoplasty is long. Should I wait until after having the baby to get a rhinoplasty?

Answer: You need to decide which will come first! When it comes to surgery and procreation, this is a matter of personal choice. I believe that fertility naturally decreases the older you get. In that regard, it may be best to focus your energies on getting pregnant. If you are certain that you do not wish to try to get pregnant for another 3 to 4 years, I do not believe that any surgical procedure would affect your fertility. Hope this helps and good luck! Sincerely, Dr Joseph
