Prepping for Gynecomastia Surgery

You've got your game on. You're mentally and emotionally ready to have breast reduction. You're even going with your wife, who is having breast reduction--everybody knows you're a supportive spouse. What else do you need to do?

• Don't take aspirin before the procedure. Your doctor will prescribe any medications you need for recovery.
• Don't smoke. It hinders your recovery.
• Don't use herbal remedies such as St. John's Wort, ephedra nad gingko biloba.
• Do relax.
• Have a blood count done and send or have the test results faxed to your surgeon.

Above all, go home with your wife and spend the evening supporting each other.
