BirthControl ??
I just visted with my nutritionist last thursday, and shes happy with my weight loss so far. I need to lose 25lbs before surgery, so far im down 7, 18 more to go!! Time to kick it up a knotch. She said that when I see the surgeon on April 15th he will probally take me off my birthcontrol pills, to get ready for surgery, estrogen increses the risk of clots i guess. Im suppose to be getting the Mirena IUD which is estrogen free, at the end of april. I wonder if that should be okay?? Estrogen wise, since its estrogen free...... Just wondering if anyone else has been in this kinda sitution before? THANKS!!!!!!
If you want to get somewhere you have to know where you want to go and how to get there. Then never, never, never, give up!

I havent had surgery yet, but when my doctor asked me about what birthcontrol I was on, I told him that i had mirena put in after I had my daughter and he was pleased to hear it. so Im pretty sure that you will be fine! plus I LOVE LOVE LOVE the mirena...its so nice...i rarely have periods and if I do have them its just spotting. Also i have a booklet that says it is more effective then getting your tubes tied. pretty cool huh? well anyways good luck!
Hello-
Im Mandy and from DELAWARE :-)
Anywho i had surgery Dec 3rd- I had to stop my BC 2 months before surgery and start back 30 days after surgery.
I went from the pills to the NUVA RING-which i highly recommend!
All DR's are different and say different things!
Good luck with your surgery!
Hope all goes well.....
