Liposuction does not directly affect hormones or menstrual cycles; however, due to the removal of fat tissue—which produces estrogen—and the physical stress of surgery along with medications used, some women may experience temporary changes such as earlier or irregular periods. These hormonal fluctuations are typically short-term, and menstrual cycles usually return to normal within a few months. There are generally no long-term effects on reproductive health or hormone function from liposuction itself. Monitoring and maintaining a healthy lifestyle during recovery can help support hormonal balance.
