Hi there, I already told my doctor I'm currently on BC and he didn't give me any special instructions. Moreover, birth control isn't mentioned in the list of medication to avoid. However, i'm reading that many women are encouraged to stop birth control before surgery. My doctor's office is closed until the evening of the surgery so I can't really clarify if I should take my ring out. Please let me know what you all think. Best wishes.
In the next few months I'm hoping to get a rhinoplasty to get rid of my dorsal hump. I'm in the process of researching doctors and am speaking with my mom who is also a doctor, and from what I've read general anesthesia is much safer than sedation. I am anxious about any potential complications such as death from anesthesia. Could the fact that I take lexapro and birth control pills cause any complications?
