Breast Augmentation

by Kris123456, May 05, 2008 08:07PM
I have been on birth control pills for about 20 years.  I am scheduled for a breast augmentation in 1 week; should I stop birth control (Ortho Tri-Cylen Low) to prepare and reduce the possibility of forming a clot?  

Thanks,

Check with your surgeon.  Every surgeon has different protocols about the use of birth control pills prior to surgery.
