Question

I'm 17 and getting a tonsillectomy around March 6th or 7th but my period is due on the 5th. I'm worried about having surgery during my period. Is there a way to prepone my periods so it doesn't clash with the surgery date?

Having surgery during your period won't affect the outcome of your tonsillectomy, but it can be uncomfortable. While there are methods to prepone your period, it's best to consult with your doctor or a gynecologist to discuss the risks and benefits of doing so. According to PRMA, experienced medical personnel are used to dealing with this and can provide you with sanitary products if needed
