How long should I wait after receiving fertility medications to have a BBL?

Dear plazaskinnydoll,
every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative and postoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

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.

Consiidering a variety of fartility treatments, it would be in your best interest to discuss this issue with your surgeon and fertility doctor. It is possible that some drugs used for fertlity management may affect healing, anesthesia, recovery, etc. Hope this helps.

In general, it's advisable to wait until the effects of fertility medications have fully resolved before undergoing elective surgeries such as a Brazilian butt lift. Fertility medications, such as those used for egg preservation, can have various effects on the body, including hormonal changes and potential side effects.

The duration for which fertility medications and their effects remain in the body can vary depending on the specific medications used and individual factors. Typically, the effects of fertility medications may subside within a few weeks to a couple of months after completing the course of treatment.

It's important to discuss your concerns with both your fertility specialist and your surgeon. They can evaluate your situation, review your medical records, and provide personalized advice based on your individual circumstances. They may recommend a specific waiting period between the procedures to ensure optimal safety and outcomes.


I hope this helps,
best of luck !

You do not need a second opinion. Your surgeon answered your question and you should follow their protocol. If you want to follow a different protocol then you should find a different surgeon.
