I need a second opinion. I have a scheduled appointment for egg preservation approximately two months prior to me going to have selective surgery, which is a brazilian butt lift. My surgeon said it's okay as long as I'm off all medications at least 30 days before the procedure. I am concerned that I may still have some of the effects of the fertility medications in my body during my surgery. How long should I wait between procedures?
Answer: Postoperative protocol Dear plazaskinnydoll,

Answer: How long should I wait after receiving fertility medications to have a BBL? Hello @plazaskinnydoll, thank you for your question. Is important to consult with your your reproductive endocrinologist, who is managing your fertility treatment. Most fertility medications, particularly those used in egg retrieval, affect hormone levels in the body and could potentially have an impact on surgical recovery. Best wishes! Alan Gonzalez MD.
