Silly question: did you ladies wear a bra under your gown in hospital?
no underwear.
they want access to everything :)

It works if you work it; it sorta works if you sorta work it; and it doesn't work if you don't work it.
They make you go just the gown and you to surgery... helps with being catheterized. Once that was gone and I took a shower, I put my own gown and undies on. Just had to flash the belly after that.

This was a big concern for me too! I thought that I'd want to put my bra on the second I came out of recovery, but honestly, I felt so groggy and gross that I threw modesty out the window. My surgery was at 8:00 am and I got to my room at around 1:00 (my surgeon requires 2 hours in recovery). I finally wanted undies and my pj pants at around midnight. As for the bra, I just didn't care. Surprising, considering that my nurse tech was SUPER hot!! I did have to kick him out every time I had to pee though! 
Seriously though, when I did put the bra on to go home, I found that it was a tight and uncomfortable because of gas and swelling. If you decide to take one, make it a sport bra. If I could go back, I'd do that!

I went commando until postop. I began walking the afternoon of the day I had surgery and I wanted underwear, but no bra. Nothing would prevent you from wearing it postop if you want to. Just not into surgery. Good luck with everything.
