I'm having surgery oct 3rd and that day I'm going to have my period and I'm worried about how they going to do my surgery like that , am I going to have underware on ? Can I use pad help please I know it's silly but I'm concern about it !

Hartford hospital in Hartford Connecticut with dr. Tishler

I was on my period when I had surgery 9/6..and i had to take my underwear off but they let me use a tampon thank the Lord lol

I was able to wear a tampon thank goodness!

They gave me the disposable stretchy kind with a pad inside, after I protested.

Mesh panties aren't just for the ladies. I rocked them like a champ though!

Were you having your period too, or are you just really really shy.. hahahhahaha!!!

I had the same issue for my surgery on August 2. They have these mesh underware they give and if course a pad. Bring extra pads as well because younwill need them for your overnight stay. It all works out and it does not interfere with surgery. Just one more issue for you to deal with.

You will be fine I was on my period and the nurse said I had to use their pads and panties and surgery went well .....

LMAO...the nurse gave them to me and told me to put them on. I liked her take charge attitude so I did as I was told. Admittedly, I was quite comfortable!

Okay....I have a pretty gross question to ask, but here goes. I'm scheduled for surgery tomorrow 9/26 and course I started period yesterday. My period start of pretty heavy for the first few days then lighten up. Now for the gross part. Along with the heavier flow I'm passing these clots (during my period) and I don't know if I should postpone my surgery. I've called the surgeon's office but no one has called me back yet. Did anyone else experience this?

No I wouldn't reschedule ur surgery. There's probably gonna be a wait if u rescheduled and by then u might be on ur period again. They see this all the time. Wouldnt worry about it. Besides, they won't be in ur panties so they'll have no idea anyway. Surgery is short so I doubt you'll leak thru

My period has been like that for almost 13 years...until I got an IUD...u will be fine..the one thing I did notice because of the blood thinning shots I got b4 and after surgery my period was a little heavier..and I started abt 5 days before surgery after not having one for almost 6 months

geeesh' date=' they made me strip to the bone! I am glad I was knocked out so I didn't have long to think about me being completely naked on a cold table, LOL.[/quote']

Patty, me too. I am sure NO ONE was turned on by the experience either!
