don't worry, u can ask to keep a pad on!. my sister had her period during a surgery and she kept a pad on they didnt really care actually;-) my mom also had a surgery during her period but her doctor told her not to put anything on and not to worry about the bleeding on the sheets:-)) think of it as a good luck sign;-)Www@Answer-Health@Com
Doctors have been doing surgery for many years and I'm sure you won't be the first women who's having a period!. It really shouldn't make a difference, but I would speak to your surgeon first!. Where is the reconstructive surgery, if it's abdominal, that may make a difference!. That's your best bet, speak to your surgeonWww@Answer-Health@Com
i remember my mom had surgery, LASIK i think, while she was on her period, and I think what she did to alter/lessen the flow was take a birth control pill!. she said it didn't work completely, but if you want to try that it shouldn't hurt!. Also, ask the doc like everyone else is recommending :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
I don't think you'd need to reschedule, but it wouldn't hurt to ask the doctor!.
I had laparoscopic surgery to remove a cyst and an ovary and I was on my period!. I told them and they just made sure to put a pad under me when they were done so when I woke up I wouldn't be sitting in a mess!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
