Answer: Avoid Blood Thinning Ingredients Before any sort of surgery, including breast augmentation, it's best to avoid any vitamins, minerals, or supplements that thin the blood. These include vitamin E, fish oil, garlic supplements, St. John's wort, and more. Your surgeon will likely offer you a list of supplements to avoid. There aren't really any supplements that you MUST take before surgery, especially since different doctors have different opinions on the matter altogether.

Answer: Vitamins that shouls be avoided or taken before a Bam HI Moon, I usually tell my patients to avoid Vit. C and E which can cause bleeding if taken in high amounts. I also have on that list medications, such as Aspirin, Advil, Motrin, Aleve, etc.. Other over the counter medications to avoid are things like glucosamine and fish oil which, again, can cause bleeding.Usually, a women's one a day vitamin is fine, but generally, I tell my patients to avoid all herbals and estrogens 2 weeks before and after surgery. The reason to avoid estrogens is to decrease the incidence of potential blood clots in the legs which can travel to the lungs.Hope this helps.Best,Dr. Christine Rodgers

Answer: Vitamins and BA Your surgeon should give you a list of drugs to take and those not to take. You specifically want to avoid anything which thins the blood--this could cause more bruising, even bleeding. Review carefully with your surgeon.
