How do you live without a Gallbladder?
Sometimes, doctors might suggest removing the gallbladder, a procedure known as cholecystectomy, for various reasons. This could be due to infections, inflammation (called cholecystitis), gallstones causing pain or infection, or the presence of gallbladder polyps.
When your gallbladder is taken out, it means your body no longer stores bile, a substance that helps digest fat. Even without a gallbladder, you can lead a healthy life by making some changes to your diet. It's important to focus on a diet that is lower in fat, as your body may take a bit longer to digest fats without the gallbladder.
