This 53 yr old is in tears because 9 days post-op, and I thank you for understanding needing a hysterectomy balanced with the pain of infertility. Wont miss my horrible periods.
How are you doing?
It's not easy being a woman. We should be appreciated even more. Be encouraged. Thanks for sharing 🙏.
Absolutely, we should be appreciated, sweetie!!! Who gives birth to babies, after all???
Romans 10:9-11 KJV 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
It really ain’t
I've been dealing with uterine fibroids for about 10 years and had my first surgery in 2016, now they're back and even more ferocious than before. The bleeding is frightening. I'm gripped with severe anxiety when I have to leave the house during my period, whether it's for work or an appointment. My entire calendar of life is dictated by my periods, and I'm dressed in full black wherever I go. Getting up from bed in the mornings during my periods is like a fire hydrant gushing water. I have an incontinence sheet by the bedside to catch bleeding gushing down the legs despite how many pads I go to sleep with. It's insane. I avoid eating during this time so I don't have to use the toilet, or to keep my bulging belly down; I've looked 3-4 months pregnant for years due to fibroids and it's changed my whole aesthetic and the way I dress, I'm so self-conscious now sadly.
Second time around and the doctors won't do another myomectomy due to large size of fibroids and much tissue scarring. They say I'd be considered a high risk surgery. MY options are Embolisation or a hysterectomy. I'm desperate for a hysterectomy as I never ever want to bleed again. I'm due another scan this December 3, 2023 by which time I will have to say tell my doctor what route we are taking. I am so scared. I don't have kids nor do I want them, but this feels so final, yet I'm desperate to be healed. PLease pray for me.
Hey 👋🏾 I was just like you a 12 weeks ago. I was considering emobilization until a coworker of mine told she had it done and after a year or two the fibroids found another artery and returned. I had a adominal hysterectomy and although I was so scared it was the best decisions I ever made. I am so happy now pain free no more suffering. I later found out that the fibroids were cancerous. So who knows what could have happened to me if I had continued to let fear stop me from my journey to a better quality of life. I feel alive again. Just do your research and find a doctor who listens to you and that you feel comfortable with.
@@blackbeauty7537 Hello dear,
thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement. I have been looking for this comment to reply to you and so glad I found it today. I had a hysteroscopy exam last Friday and it confirmed my situation has worsened. After the last horribly heavy period this November, I am more than ready to have a hysterectomy. I immediately told the surgeon I would be going for a hysterectomy and have been put on the waiting list. Already, I feel a huge weight off my shoulder and I wait with relief for the day to come. Fibroids are vicious and they keep returning, eventually turning cancerous. My quality of life means so much more to me so I Have chosen that. Thank you again for your encouraging words. I have pinned this video and will come back to your words again. Thank you.
Please let us know how it goes!

Hi, how did your check up go? I pray all is well😢
I just had my hysterectomy two weeks ago. I'm glad I found a black woman perspective. I have no children but I still feel like this is the best decision for me. I had to be on the pill to stop my period because of how unbearable it was. That in itself has a whole list of side effects and I decided enough was enough. I agree with you when you said take a chance on yourself and health. I hope to moving on to a better state of life. Thanks for your videos.
Thank you for sharing hunny , best of luck to you 😊 would love if you subscribed and watched more ❤️
Don't be constipated. Drink lot of water, eat papaya, liquid for for 1 month
I had a hysterectomy due to four baseball size Fibroids. I couldn't wait until that day came. I had surgery last year in April 13th of 2023! So much better no more mess!❤
Hey Shell, had a hysterectomy in 2015 due to fibroids. You articulated the pros and cons so well. I love not having a period but having these random personal summers are no joke.
As I'm gearing up for a hysterectomy, I'm beyond grateful to have found your channel. Sharing & documenting your experience is such a blessing in my journey. Bless your strength & courage 🙏
Thanks for watching hun , best of luck sending prayers your way , please subscribe ❤️
I have endo and my doctor is almost certain I have adeno as well. My hysterectomy is 2 weeks from today. No kids unfortunately but I'm ready for a better quality of life. Thank you for sharing, I keeping hearing so many success stories and how women are feeling so much better.
How are you now?!
@mrs227 thank you for asking! I'm 5 months post surgery today! It took till 4 months to ALMOST feel normal. I didn't expect such a rough recovery. I still can't do brisk walking and I do experience some random nerve pain but I'm soooo much better than I was when I had adenomyosis. I ended up having severe adenomyosis. But it sucks because I still have endo (which I knew I would because I still have my ovaries) and I still have pretty intense ovulation and bloating. They both don't lasts near as long as they used to so that's good, but I just wish it'd be gone. Guess I have to wait till menopause lol
@@stephaniehaile6541 I have a question
My endometrial line is 3cm
I am afraid to go for biopsy
I had mine in January of this year, best decision I’ve made. My quality of life has improved greatly
That’s great to hear 🙏🏽
It's not just you deary, I've been taking vitamin C, regained my bladder control ,I finally sleep threw The night;Vitamin C keeps your nutrients in tact.
Thanks for sharing that, (runs to go get vitamin c lol)
Is sleeping through the night connected with the surgery?
Absolutely I deal with hot flashes also. It’s been 7 weeks for me. I love your channel. I love that you love the lord. God bless you and your entire family…
Thanks beauty❤️
I had a hysterectomy on 9/11/23. After years of dealing with fibroids, I had a myomectomey in 1998. Thought I was fine. I tried to have a child (no children) and found out I had endometrial hyperplasia along with ademynosis. Nothing worked in terms of treatment, so I opted to do the total hysterectomy. My MD told me there was an abundance of scar tissue covering my fibroids, which were covering my cervix and uterus. I'm hoping and praying my health will improve after this.
Thanks for sharing hun, praying for you 🙏🏽💕
@SimplyShell417 No, thank you for sharing your story. It encouraged me to share my story.
Hi. praying everything is going well. Scheduled for a hysterectomy in May. Had a previous myomectomy and have adeno. Did you have to get a vertical cut or did they go thru your old incision. bc my doctor I'd telling me he has to cut me up and down. and I'm terrified of that
@sudanaanderson3708 Hi, I'm doing well now. I'm still healing (due to post-op infections). It is horrible that your MD is talking about a long of a cut. My MD did my procedure laproscopic, I've got 5 holes in my abdomen. I also had adeo, imo if you can please find a female Asian or black MD. I'm not sure where you live, but I was on IG this past Sunday, and there's a black male MD in Chicago who specializes in women's health. Please don't let your MD cut you like that.
@lavonfleming6116 OMG I just seen his IG last night the fibroid slayer. Yes I seen he doesn't perform vertical hysterectomies at all.. Yes I'm going to get a second opinion. He said bc my uterus is large and probably alot of scar tissue sinve I had previous myomectomy. it just doesn't sit well with me that in this new Era of technology this is a thing. Thank you so much for replying I really appreciate it. 🙏🏽
I'm 8 weeks post op. This is how I originally found your channel so appreciate your update. I'm just starting to begin to feel like a new normal. I had to have the c section style surgery due how much needed to be removed so the recovery was longer than I anticipated. Over all I feel so much better and I'm thankful.
Thanks for sharing , glad you’re doing well❤️

As a (Nurse) Chelle seeing and also hearing different experiences after a full hysterectomy I get it and completely understand. Women truly go through so much and now dealing with my husband and his health scare smh, it’s a lot. Enjoyed your video ❤I know I’m late as always😊stay blessed 😇 boo!
I had mine done July 15th and recovery has been awful. I find myself crying alone. My mom visited us from NC to GA and she’s tending to the kids and hubby is at work which leaves me lonely. I’m mentally depressed bc I have no support in that area and I’m hurting. I hope my days become better bc I have genuinely been so sad. Even in the hospital I was neglected. I had not received bedside manner. I had to report my nurse due to her negligence. Just pray for me bc I’m so depressed and in pain
🫂
I've had a similar experience. Sending prayers and love!! ❤️🙏
How have you bee dear? Sorry they treated you this way and that you been without a support system. I see you. Sending you love and good health 🫶🏾🌸
@@phinesdaughter1737will be me soon, end of september, don't even know how i will handle this alone. How did you manage? 🫶🏾
Thank you for sharing your story. I had a cuff dehiscence, vaginal cellulitis and this spacing. I SWEAR I had every complication aside from death from the surgery!
So thank you for sharing your story. Women DEFINITELY need to be celebrated for what their bodies go through!
Stay BEAUTIFUL and strong!
Thank you for sharing , I pray you’re feeling better ❤️
I also had vaginal cuff dehiscence with visceration. It was scary. I was 9 weeks post surgery. I now have 4-6 months if restrictions.
I’m grateful for my 3 as well and I do not want more. 3 c-sections later…18, 6, 10m is enough. I’m ready, ready to be done with sacrificing my mental and physical with additional pregnancies, 2 cycles a month sometimes, heavy bleeding, excessive pain…I’m looking at how much it could effect me with a positive lupus trait, I feel like the pros outweigh the cons. I’m grateful that my GYN is putting me through the necessary testing to verify that I am a candidate as opposed to just doing the tuba ligation and it making things worse! I’m actually looking forward to it, despite my mom and her Bible Belt thoughts and fears. My husband and mom will be supportive, I’m sure of it because they keep telling me to do what’s best for me🥰thank you so much for sharing your experience 🙌🏾
Thank you for sharing and watching , best of luck to you ☺️ would love if you subscribed for more
Thanks for sharing your story! I just went through a partial hysterectomy left with only my right ovary i have no kids but that's okay i went through anxiety and depression after hearing that was the only way to fix my problem i had a fibroid that was big as a baby arm protruding through my cervix i thought it was my uterus prolapsing but these fibroids are not it but on the 14th of February I had my partial hysterectomy and i feel so much better in such little time and I am mentally healing with my body and it was the best thing for me even though i cant have kids adoption will do just fine cause i put my health first its good to know that I am not the only one who had to go through this as a young woman ❤
Thank you for sharing your story hun best of luck😘 would love if you subscribed for more
My Mom ended up needing bladder surgery and had a sling installed after her hysterectomy, but she feels great now. Every one of us is different for sure. Thank you for sharing your story.
I am approaching 4 weeks post @ age 39 no children. Fibroids, stage 4 Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, & Choc cysts. This was my last resort, but as of now I feel like I've made the best decision. I am still very sore and now dealing with muscle spasms. God has truly kept me so I know greater is coming. 🙏🏾🙏🏾 Thank You for your content continued blessings.
Thank you for sharing praying for a speedy recovery ✨🩷 please subscribe for more
I had a hysterectomy on April 26 due to four large fibroids in my uterus which caused me unbearable menstrual pain with heavy bleeding. My condition resulted me getting my uterus and fallopian tubes removed. I've recovered and I feel a lot better now than before.
Good to hear🙏🏽❤️
@@SimplyShell417 thank you
This came up in my feed and it's perfect timing... mine is scheduled in 2 weeks! Heavy periods from fibroids and it has made me severely anemic, even with iron pills! I'm nervous and excited. This video was extremely helpful. Thank you!!
You’re very welcome ..best of luck hun , please subscribe for more 🩷
It’s been 2 months going on 3 on the 23rd. I had Adenomyosis, one of the easiest surgeries I’ve had, barely any pain afterwards….yes and I agree with you on the urges to pee.
Romans 10:9-11 KJV 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed.
I’m 42. I’ve got Adeno (and Endo), as well. Booked in for a hysterectomy in a few weeks. How are you feeling from your procedure?
@@JustMJC52I’m sorry for responding so late. I felt great afterwards a little sore. The gas pain was a bit much but it was quick. I didn’t complain much.6 months later I’m fine. How are you feeling now. I had the Davinci what procedure did you have
Thank you for sharing. I will be having a partial hysterectomy in February 2024. A little nervous but it has to be done.
Shell, you are such a beautiful soul! 😊 Your openness & willingness to share your experience (in addition to all the hair care videos) is so refreshing! May God continue to bless you sis. 🙏🏽❤️
I have an enormous fibroid...about the size of a grapefruit. I've slowly started immense cramps before my period. The last month was the worst. I had been putting off getting a hysterectomy for so long although that was the only solution by my OBGYN. I am finally seeing a new DR soon and will see what their opinion is. I think this will be my only resolve but I am still so scared of the end result. Thank you for your videos. They do help me a lot!
Thank you for sharing ❤️ I pray you find comfort and do what’s best for YOU
I had two large ones and o put it off for 8 years! My surgery was so wonderful! My life was instantly better. I had almost zero pain. That was my fear. Went home with only Tylenol and ibuprofen.
Hi Shell! I’m so happy that you gave us an update on your hysterectomy. I initially found your channel about a year ago because I was researching having a hysterectomy myself. I had suffered from fibroids and endometriosis for over 15 years. I had 2 myomectomies and 1 uterine embolization procedure within those years and they helped temporarily but the fibroids did come back. I finally had my hysterectomy last December and can say I wish I did it sooner! I feel amazing! My uterus was filled with 32 fibroids and weighed 12lbs! Trusting in God and His power to heal was what brought me through. I wish you well and thanks again for the update!❤
How your using the bathroom going I have fibroid and do to them my using the bathroom is not to good and I will like to get this surgery done to relieve this issues and other symptoms like the having bleeding
Hi, before the surgery I was using the bathroom frequently during the day and night. Once I had the hysterectomy the frequency of me having to use the bathroom decreased ALOT. I’m now able to sleep through the night without getting up to use the bathroom. Deciding to have a hysterectomy is huge decision. Definitely continue to do your research. Good luck!
Thank for for sharing. I am having a partial hysterectomy February 2024 due fibroids. My cycle comes when ever which keeps me on edge. Heavy periods multiple pads. Listening to your story has really helped take the anxious feeling down a notch. Thank you ❤❤
Best of luck , would love and update and also if you would subscribe and watch more ❤️
I just had a total hysterectomy two weeks ago, and I do appreciate your insight on the situation much more you enlighten me on a lot things if arise ,so I know what to ask my doctor about . I do thank you God bless you.
You’re so welcome best of luck to you 🩷would love if you subscribed and watched more
Thank you for sharing!! I’m 4 days post op and still can’t believe I went through it !
How are you feeling?
@wanda9580 .... I totally innerstand . I feel you .😢😘😘😘😘💜💙💚🌹🌹🌹
Honestly, with excruciating fibroids right now, I retain fluids so badly I actually go up a shoe size sometimes, so what is a con for some, will be a pro for me once I've had this surgery. The bloating is insane. I also understand the sadness you feel post surgery. Normal surgery comes with post surgical trauma, let alone "female surgery" which can make you feel incomplete as a woman. I felt this during my first fibroid surgery and it plunged me into some depression, but I will be prepared this second time around. I'm already going through pre-menopausal stage, I'm also experiencing pre-diabetic symptoms and mimicked alpha thalassemia symptoms which I never heard of until my doctor told me this from my repeated blood tests. Phew! So much going on!!!! It's been an extremely long road with doctors, but I persisted and wore them down to be taken seriously.
Thanks for sharing🙏🏽
Glad to have found you. I’m getting prepared to have a total hysterectomy due to PCOS unbearable and traumatic bleeding for months and months and months all the time. And your videos have helped me to take the chance for my health and quality of life. Your videos have helped me prepare so thank you 🤗.
This makes me happy 😊 I appreciate you sharing you story , GOD has you covered 🙏🏽 please subscribe for more
I watched your hysterectomy video before my surgery to get an idea of what to expect, now I'm 4 days post op from a total hysterectomy ( i kept my ovaries also). I had a 20-week uterus that weighed 3.4lbs. They had to open me up via my old c-section scar to remove it. I have noticed an increase in hot flashes but I read that its due to the interruption of blood flow to the ovaries.
I’m 46 and has been dealing with fibroids for many many years. I had an ablation about 2 years ago and suddenly the pain and long periods reappeared. I had a vaginal ultrasound which showed I had so many fibroids they were intertwined and tangled together. It wasn’t even a thought to make the decision for an hysterectomy which is scheduled for October 10th, 2023.
Unfortunately my daughter has endometriosis. She is 29 with no children. She also has Autism. She’s very high functioning, but her pain is beyond what I’ve ever experienced. She has had a procedure to help shrink the one fibroid she has but like myself the painful long periods have returned. They’re trying an approach with a new pill to avoid a hysterectomy due to her age. Watching your videos in search for myself has taught me a lot about her condition as well. I’m so scared for her.
I’m so happy for you to feel free from the pain and get your life back. Thank you for sharing your story. I’ve now gained a better understanding of my daughter’s experience as well as my own. God bless you beautiful!❤
Thank you for watching ☺️ sending love and hugs your way , prayers for your daughter ❤️❤️❤️
So glad you're feeling better and the decision was the right one for you. GOD bless you. And thank GOD for good doctors. Yea lady issues are no joke.
I’m about to go in, in a few weeks for a hysterectomy. I was diagnosed through surgery with endometriosis in ‘18 (had my tubes removed during that time too). I wasn’t afraid then because I always knew something wasn’t right. Now, I’m all over the place mentally (I’m ok without having kids. I’ve been severely let down/ have a huge distrust of medical staff).
You are incredibly brave. I pray that God keeps a HEDGE of protection around you and your wonderful family.
🙌🏽 thank you for sharing your experience 🌹 glad to hear that you have healed, and that you are feeling better🙏🏾💪🏾
4 days postop and I’m so glad I made this decision thanks for the updates I’m a new Subb and love your videos ❤
Thanks babe, sending hugs your way ❤️
Romans 10:9-11 KJV 9 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. ❤❤
Thank you for your videos. It made me more comfortable with my decision. This is day 8 post-op for me, and there's no pain just a little discomfort. Sleeping on my back is overrated 😂. I'm walking and moving very well.
Thank you for watching hun , would love if you subscribed and watched more . Glad ur recovering well❤️
My name is Mary I’m going through everything you are talking about I am terrified but I need help and I’m tired of dealing with the bad pain back pain but pain and the bleeding Your story really help me feel much better about what I’m going through
Thanks for watching hun , prayers sent ur way . Would love if you subscribed & watched more
I appreciate your honesty I’m going to have it soon they found grade 2 endometriosis cancer and I had 2 ectopic pregnancies and 2 miscarriages 😢I won’t be able to have babies of my own, which is a hard pill to swallow. I came to reality that God send me to this earth to be a Mother for Foster kids and Adopting Children. It hurts so much ❤
Sending prayers your way❤️
🙏🏾🙏🏾🌻
Your videos have calmed my nerves for this surgery. Thank you for the update. I’m waiting for a date from the hospital to have an abdominal hysterectomy. 🙏🏽
Prayers sent your way in advance ❤️
I also had a full hysterectomy and I have to agree 💯 about the hot flashes and night sweats!! I can totally relate to having the sudden urges to get up and go to the bathroom at least two to three times per night now. I thought it was just me but I’m glad you shared. Be Blessed!!
Just had my procedure done a few weeks ago I’m already having night sweats. Thank you for the information my sister
Thank you for watching sis, prayers send ur way🙏🏽 hope you subscribe
Thanks for you video. I’m 8wks post surgery. I watched your videos before the surgery and it helped a lot.
I have to say you are soo awesome!!! How you open your self up to people u don't know and sharing your experiences 😊 that's why I continue to watch 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼✌🏼
❤️
Thank you so much for this. I watched an earlier video of yours concerning this and you’ve helped reduce some of my anxiety. I think one of the hardest things is explaining why I’ve chosen to go this route to other women who haven’t been on this journey.
You’re so welcome 😉 would love if you subscribed and shared with others
Good video. Very scary. At least you already had your kids because some women didn't get to have kids. ❤
I’m very thankful
I have hot flashes all the time. Even in the winter. Night sweats all the time. No more periods, I am very happy I got my surgery done.
I’m scheduled Oct 11th, along with a tummy tuck.. never had kids though… I have fibroids… I had a myomectomy about 8 years ago and a ablation about 2 years ago.. well I have a fibroid the size of my uterus and another one on the outside of my uterus ☹️☹️… so with prayer and careful thought I have decided to move forward.. I can remember when I would stand up and on my cycle it would be coming down my leg so I’m praying for better days 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Praying for you babe🙏🏽❤️❤️
Hey! How did it go? And what did you say to your doctor to get them to do a tummy tuck along with your hysterectomy?
I was adopted and I worked for an adoption agency for 8 years. 😁
Another excellent video! I first found your channel when you posted your story regarding your surgery. Thanks for encouraging and enlightening your audience.
❤Thank you for the update. So glad the pain is gone for you. ❤ Thank you for being so transparent with us! Sending you big hugs and love with your gorgeous self!! Precious Lady Bug!!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey!! ❤️ I am 2 months out from surgery day, scared and anxious, 37 with only 1 bio child and your videos have def helped ease my nerves! I too have IBS and it led to my endometriosis taking soooo long to be diagnosed! It's been ping pong from Gastro to OBGYN! But I want to suggest to you sea moss (I use Transformation Factory's brand). Having endometriosis and IBS has been the devil because I wasnt always able to differentiate the 2, but I thank God for the relief sea moss brought me! Thank you again for sharing and all the transparency and I hope to feel the same relief as you once my surgery is complete!
Thank you so much for sharing😊 , I heard a lot of good things about sea moss.. glad you’re doing well please subscribe and come back with update

Hello, thanks for sharing your story and experience and that you are feeling better😊
This is very informative. Glad to know hat I am not alone with this
Thank you for watching , please subscribe if you enjoyed
Thanks so much for the update Shell! This is so encouraging ❤❤
Thanks for watching 🥰
I feel you. The hot flashes are crazy. I'm 8wks PO and lawd.. these flashes have me in a choke hold😂
lol ! I heard there are some herbal teas that help
Thank you for sharing such a personal experience that so many women may go through!
When I think about all my stuff taken out of my body, it freaks me out but I had it done and then afterwards I read that your vagina can collapse and other organs can fall into where your other parts were taking out.
Altho I have never heard of vaginal collapse..they tie it up the organs do shift slightly...No need to be afraid of that it's minimal. I've never felt better.
I’m so sorry you went through the pain of endometriosis, but I’m happy that you decided to have the surgery to take your life back! You’re so Blessed to have your three babies!!! You’re so brave and beautiful!!! ❤
Thanks love
Hi.
I had an open hysterectomy 2weeks ago. My uterus was weighing 2kgs that’s 4pounds, the procedure went well and now am home recuperating but still pain occasionally. I must say it was the best decision I made since fibrosis had taken a great toll on me leading to severe anemia.
Glad to hear it🙏🏽
Thank you for this video. I am so proud of you for going through and advocating for yourself. I pray that you are healed and still doing awesome. ! have you had any emotional mood swings from it I am scared of that too. I’m supposed to have surgery tomorrow but I’m soo freaking terrified!! I’m scared he’s gonna rush. I’m scared of not being able to orgasam again. Scared of everything that can go wrong 😭😭😭 I’m in pain but I’ve heard it can come back. You are very beautiful.
Thank you for watching 🥰 I have had a successful surgery and all is well . You will be just fine , think positive no negative thoughts, praying for you ❤️ please subscribe
Came across your video. Thank you
I am starting HRT hormone therapy before my upcoming hysterectomy and I am also having my urologist consult with my gyno so that I can have my bladder surgically put back in place during my hysterectomy cause I don't wanna have surgery twice!
Definitely do your research first before letting anyone cut you , best of luck to you sis
@@SimplyShell417 You are absolutely right! You gotta take your time and be willing to go to multiple Drs. for research. The healthcare system is a JOKE - I work in it, I see the patient outcome data every day as part of my Corporate job.
I had the exact same surgery as you on April 3rd so I’m 3 weeks post op and still suffering from pain. I feel like I’ve been on my period this whole time. I hope this gets better soon because if things continue this way, I don’t see what the purpose of the hysterectomy was. I just want to feel better 😭
I’m so sorry to hear that , maybe you should contact your doctor ☹️
Hey sis! Thank you for this video, I am so scared and nervous about my upcoming surgery on Oct 25. I really needed this. ❤
Sending hugs and prayers for a safe speedy recovery🙏🏽💕
@@SimplyShell417 thank you beautiful 💗💗
Hey! How did it go?
I’m scheduled for a hysterectomy in June 2024. I dnt have kids. I tried for two years and no luck. I do get very sad and depressed about it but I’m 44 so there’s nothing I can do now. But get this outta me 😢
Sending prayers ur way 🩷
I don't know why I thought you had a partial hysterectomy, and I thought you could still have children using one ovary? Learn something new every day( I was wrong)... I'm glad to know you're doing much better than before. Good informative video. 👍🏽 ❤❤
You can have children with one ovary as that is not called hystorectomy it is oopherectomy the hystorectomy is removing the uterus. Which indeed you can not have children without one
I'm having a total laparoscopic hysterectomy in September. I live in Canada, and the only thing I'm worried about is the after math of everything like the pain and the bleeding. Was the bleeding like a period or like spotting? Did you lose any weight? I was looking for hysterectomy videos that weren't too old, and i came across yours. Very informative and very helpful. Thank you.
Hey sis its tey, i had to get a new TH-cam start over. Im catching up on all yoir videos. Im actually getting my tubes tied after i give birth in February cause im done ❤
I missed you sis, congrats on baby❤️
I am new here and thanks to God I found your channel
Thank you for being here , hope you watch more ❤️
Thanks so much for your story it truly helped
I'm so glad!
Thank you for sharing your story
I’m considering a hysterectomy because of very heavy periods that last for months
Thank you fro watching 😊 would love if you subscribed
Omg shell, u nail it with the bladder. Gosh, I hate it at night. Just when I'm getting into a good sleep, here comes the getting up going back to the restroom. Lol, I'm thinking about depends 🤣 naw I'm kidding for now, but it's a thought. Now the hot flashes I never used. To sweat now since my surgery it's like a water fall hot flashes sucks one minute I'm looking all cute face made up next thing I know here comes the sweating my face be looking like a map of Texas. We females go through a lot. Good topic. I watched ur video after ur surgery. I tear up, and I knew what u were going through
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I had to have an endometrial ablation, because of so much pain and some of the stuff you mention. I bleed like a period a few months after my procedure,my Doctor told me if I continue she wanted to do a hysterectomy. I have been fine since that episode. Nice to know what to expect if I had to have it done 🙏❤️
I’m considering the ablation. How are you now a month later?
It's funny someone asked me how I'm doing. I have not had any more bleeding until a few days ago. I'm spotting a little at the moment. I had this surgery a year ago and I had a period one month and the spotting I'm having at the moment. I only had this procedure because of the pain, I may have to end up having a hysterectomy. At first I'm going to get my pancreas checked out first. I'm still having pain in certain areas, which is a sign of pancreas issues❤
@@monicahill750 oh no! Praying that things work out for you. Hopefully it’s not your pancreas. 🙏💜
Very good I’m in recovery now and it suck but yes god is good/
Hey namesake I need build courage like you too talk about my mastectomy, I'm not fully healed from it I found myself still crying about it so yeah I need to heal from the whole ordeal
Awww hunny..give yourself time namesake, its okay to cry thats how we heal, sending love and hugs your way❤️❤️❤️
@@SimplyShell417 thanx sweetie I really do appreciate it
New subscriber here! Thanks for sharing your journey with us ladies ❤ I'm 1 week post a partial abdominal hysterectomy. I'm feeling great so far. I did keep both ovaries, cervix and tubes. Haven't had any bladder issues whatsoever, but I wonder if its because I kept my cervix.
Thanks for sharing love so glad you’re recovering well❤️
Do you have any hot flashes?
Do you still have monthly bleeding somewhat from keeping your cervix?
@niko4305 No bleeding whatsoever....I kept it to help prevent bladder prolapse also so it wouldn't affect my sex life lol 😊
It’s so concerning to me that so many black women have uterine issues, fibroid issues at such an alarming rate. What is going on? Something just ain’t right. This is an epidemic.
It’s the food/hormones/additives. Our ancestral diets were of natural foods.
I agree
@@SimplyShell417 For one, we should be eating in accordance with our blood type. Education regarding this subject is near non-existent. For example, I don’t understand why we still promoting animal milk consumption when we know that the human breastmilk is the only milk humans thrive from.
@ReasonablySpeaking9808 I agree
It's definitely our diet and the hair products like relaxers. Also doctors don't tell black women about alternatives they push hysterectomy. Fibroids are non cancerous and should be removed without taking the uterus. Not being sarcastic but white women are offered alternatives to keep their uterus in tact. They want them to continue to have babies and I wonder why?
Thank you for always sharing 😘
Thank you for listening ❤️
Thanks for sharing your story. I'm 40 and have endometriosis and adenomyosis. May I know if your doctor still put you on any HRT medication after the hysterectomy?
i would give 5 thumbs up if I could😊
personal question... did he say that sex felt different since your cervix was also removed? or just different in general?
you don't have to answer if that's too personal...i just have so many questions before i get boarded for my total hyster (also leaving my ovaries)
Everything still the same lol no complaints sis haha
I had the same question. I heard the vaginal cuff makes your vagina shorter… Nervous about that 😬
Never noticed any difference..neither did my partner
@@jjohnson2987 thank you for not being offended...we have to deal with so much as women. thank you SOooo much for sharing 🌺
Fiber is good , probiotic and prebiotic is great for bowl area and movement
Thank you for sharing❤
Even one body is different. I did bleed. Depend on the type of surgery.
I had my ovaries and tubes removed due to endometriosis and pmdd two days ago. I am nervous for what is to come in the next few months
I still have mine , dr said I was too young to start menopause ☹️ please keep me posted
