A member asked:
Is it safe to have a partial hysterectomy and a breast reduction within a week of each other?
6 doctors weighed in across 3 answers
Yes: It is safe to have these 2 procedures close to each other. As long as there are not complications from the 1st surgery. It is important to get the appropriate preoperative clearance and work up from your primary care doctor. It would be helpful to have the gynecologist and plastic surgeon communicate to ensure a smooth postoperative course.

Usually: In many circumstances they may be done at the same trip to the o.R., reducing the anesthetic redundancy.

Possibly.: Probably even better to have the procedures combined, if doing so is deemed appropriate/safe by the involved physicians.
