A smooth day starts with a simple plan:

• Medications: Tell us about blood thinners, supplements and allergies. We’ll advise if anything needs adjusting.
• Hygiene: Shower on the day; some men prefer a careful trim (avoid nicks).
• Clothing: Supportive underwear and comfy pants.
• Transport: Arrange a lift home.
• Work & sport: Plan 1–2 easy days; delay heavy lifting/strenuous sport for ~1 week.
• Pain relief: Have simple analgesics at home unless advised otherwise.
• Food & drink: For local anaesthetic procedures, eat and hydrate normally unless we advise differently.

We’ll go over your personalised plan in your consultation, including consent, benefits, risks and alternatives.
