    Does anyone know if you have to stop taking the contraceptive pill before surgery? I wasn’t told anything about this but have just read it on another site xx

    I just had my op on Monday and was not told anything like that. Although I had my BA elsewhere not at Mya.

    I was told to by my surgeon although when i mentioned i have a medical condition he said it was ok and i could carry on. Its to reduce the risk of dvt. Im not going with mya though so unsure if mya policy is different

    My PC said that some pills you have to stop, I guess the nurse will tell you at pre op 🙂
