A member asked:
I am scheduled for open surgery on tuesday to remove large dermoid cyst. would being on day 3-4 of period force postponement of surgery? thank you.

No.: Being on your period is not a reason to delay surgery. There is a slightly higher risk of post-operative nausea during one's period; however, that is usually controllable with treatments commonly available.
