What are the risks associated with breast reduction while taking hormone replacement therapy?

I personally would have no problem with you proceeding with breast reduction. Certainly you should understand the side effects of hormone replacement with or without anticipated surgery.

Patients who have breast surgery are typically ambulatory within 24-48 hours after the procedure. Although taking hormone replacement Can increase the risk of blood clots this is quite rare with breast surgery. The risk does however also vary depending on other factors and this needs to be carefully discussed with any surgeon you see regarding potential surgery.

Thanks for the question. The biggest majority of my patients undergoing breast surgery of any type are on hormone or hormone replacement therapy and I have not seen that cause any specific problems.
