Nowadays, people still attach great importance to the health of the thyroid gland, but many people still lack sufficient understanding of it. The thyroid gland is the largest endocrine gland in the human body, capable of secreting two hormones, one of which is thyroid hormone. People should pay attention to the health status of the thyroid gland. So, can surgery be performed on the thyroid gland during menstruation?
During menstruation, thyroid surgery is generally not suitable. This is because women have relatively weaker resistance during menstruation, which is also normal. Moreover, the coagulation function is also relatively poor, and surgery in this situation is still very dangerous. It is easy to affect the coagulation of blood because blood is not easy to coagulate, which will definitely increase the amount of bleeding and the probability of bleeding.
If thyroid surgery is indeed necessary, it can be done after the menstrual period is over. Moreover, doing thyroid surgery during menstruation can easily cause some complications, and once the complications become severe, the impact on health is even greater. In fact, many surgeries during menstruation are not suitable, such as cervical surgery, which may cause intrauterine infections.
If surgery is necessary, it is generally recommended to choose a suitable time for the surgery after the end of menstruation. Of course, as it is a thyroid surgery, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital and undergo corresponding examinations to ensure the smooth progress of the surgery.
