In most cases, this is really not an issue. If there a problem with increased frequency of bleeding or amount, you may need an additional examination, but this is unusual.
I perform about 500 BBLs each year, and the BBL is the most surgeon dependent plastic surgery procedure. Find a plastic surgeon with elite education, training, and experience credentials who performs hundreds of BBLs each year with favorable patient reviews. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Yes, you can still have a BBL performed if you are on a menstrual cycle. Next step for you is to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your options and goals. Best wishes.

Dear nancy9799,
Ideally I would prefer that a patient be off her period prior to surgery.  Particularly since surgery will be in the genital area.  It's not paramount, but it would make things easier.  You're going to be in a garment and having to change pads or tampons may not be particularly comfortable in the early post-op period.  Ultimately it's something you should discuss with your sugeon.  Hope this helps

Yes, this is not a problem as long as your periods are moderate in terms o the amount of bleeding, but this is generally not a problem.
Best of Luck on your surgery !
