Surgery while on PCT

Been running a test only cycle for about 8 weeks. I have surgery coming up in early August and I'll be under. I'm done pinning and will start PCT in a few weeks, clomid and nolva, possibly a few asin doses if I start to get acne flare ups. I'm just wondering if anyone has any knowledge or experience on this topic.
I've read that nolva and asin can increase the risk of blood clots, but other than that not much info online.

You should disclose all current or recent drug/medication use particularly to your surgeon and anesthesiologist. Frankly you may be safer simply coming off with no PCT drugs, perhaps cruising in on a true TRT dose.

Your surgeon and anesthesiologist need to know whatever you're taking. Remember, they are not cops. Ppl disclose illegal stuff to them everyday. They just don't like surprises that complicate their most important job, which is to do no harm.

No matter what you decide to do, disclose 100% of it, no exceptions.

Depending on your use history, dosage, and age, you may not need to PCT right now. Eight weeks isn’t very long, and the duration of suppression is proportional to the need for PCT.

If you’ve run several cycles before and/or you ran a big dose, I would go to a TRT level until you’re recovered.

500 test e/week. First cycle. 28 years old. Do you think I could get away with no PCT on that dose?

My main concern is that if it becomes documented in my record, my insurance will screw me. That's why I'm trying to not disclose the aas use. I have about 7 weeks to clear my system.
I've read that people have died under anesthesia from not disclosing their aas use, but this seems to be related to orals, like fitness girl who didn't tell her doctor she was taking clen.
I also want to get a good PCT in but I just really don't know what to do. I can't push the surgery back either because it would be during the fall semester which I can't do.
I've considered just running nolva to prevent gyno (my main concern and I am prone to it), and saying that I've been using it to get rid of some current mild gyno.

just lower your test to trt dose, man who have surgeries being natural already have test in their body so it will do no harm. After surgery you can come off test and do a pct if you like

Lower test dose to 150-250mg/wk once you reach the end of your blast, and wait to start PCT until after the surgery. Not the best idea to add drugs in approaching an event like that especially if you have little to no experience with the drugs.
