Total Hysterectomy this Friday due to cervical cancer. I’m 59 with 2 wonderful grown kids. So I’ve decided to just take out the whole broken bread machine instead of fussing with extensive testing. But I’ve done yoga and pranayama all my life and already have a freezer full of home cooked meals ready to go so I’m getting there. Now I’m working on holiday cleaning my entire house and workout room before Friday. 💪 🥳 I think I got this. Thx, ladies! 🥰🌻🥰
It's 3 weeks since my radical hysterectomy at 56 years. I am so pleased that I did weightlifting for 2 years before this as I think it really helped post operative. I also eat healthily which I'm sure played a part. I prepared food before and also took the time to rest. Slow walking from one week after, enjoying the fresh air. I realise though that patience is a big thing with recovery.
Had surgery 3 days ago, was not informed about the bowel problems or gas. Got more information here then from doctors office. Thank you ever so much for this video. I thought there was something seriously wrong with my bowels and gas now I know it's normal. Thanks again
If I could add something for anyone watching. Before your abdominal hysterectomy..wax the area-of incision, Afterwards move, bend over the back of the sofa to get rid of gas. Lap hysterectomy also causes gas, pain in the shoulder. Don’t overdo it. A saucepan empty is really heavy after surgery, little things like that. Oh and yes everything works like it did before. Walking every evening just half a mile afterwards when you are ready is great. BTW best thing I ever did.
I am so grateful for all this great advice. I had a total hysterectomy 4 days ago, they took my ovaries. Wonderful tips, thanks so much, listening to your body is key and getting into yoga and being kind to myself for optimum health. Many thanks ladies x
Thank you so much. I had a total 6 days ago and this is the best information I’ve come across - particularly the advice from Michelle in relation to gas pain and bloating.
I'm going to have a total hysterectomy next week because I've had endometriosis since I was 15,had 3 or 4 laparoscopies,and had 1 child,was in remission for a few years and then I started having endometriosis symptoms again,my gynecologist thinks I may have adenomyosis, so this was my last straw and I agreed with my gynecologist that I wanted to have this procedure, because I know I will feel so much better,I also have a disorder called interstitial cystitis and it is a painful bladder disorder and the pain is unbearable when I have my period, so that was another reason why I'm choosing to have this procedure. I have already been preparing for this,I've been working out,doing yoga for over 6 months or more and I've been doing pelvic floor exercises for 6 months. I have already bought gas x for after surgery and i also bought stool softeners because i have bad constipation anyway. I'm nervous, but ready to go and i also purchased a new comfortable bed. Thank you for all the information. I will be drinking alot of water,fruits and protein and vegetables, i do like peppermint tea. Iam also 44 years old.My gyno is keeping my ovaries.
I’m one week post Sacrocolpopexy and partial hysterectomy (they left my ovaries and cervix) due to having all three types of pelvic prolapse. I’m currently rocking in my glider right now (thank you for that advice) as the post surgery gas pain and discomfort has almost been more difficult than my actual incision sites and vaginal pain. Wish I would have watched this video before but I’m going to go make some soups and stick to that and some healthy smoothies and get back into stretching as soon as I safely can, as well as focusing on my breathing. Thank you ladies. This has been such an emotional and physical roller coaster.
Thanks for the advice! I’m scheduled for total hysterectomy with ovary and Fallopian tube removal together with hernia repair in 2 weeks time. I lost one ovary and tube last year due to aggressive ovarian cancer. I’ve had endometriosis since age 12. Now 41. After my tumor removal surgery last year I really worked on my nutrition, exercise and stress. Still ended up with a big hernia so maybe I overdid the exercise. I’m feeling very positive about the surgery and am sure that the health changes I’ve made during the last year will contribute to a good outcome. Wishing you ladies all the best 🙏🏼
I just found this video! I am going for my surgery on June 15! I have had so much bad pain etc for 20 years. It is so time to do it. We tried a lot of other things and it’s what they and I decided on. Thank you for this
Wish I had watched this a month ago! Four days out from total hysterectomy. Most have snapped their figures saying no problem, very few have said take care of yourself and heal.
Thank you for your video and having Michelle on as well. I'm scheduled to have a partial done in March and I've already started my grieving process. I'm glad she spoke on that. This is very helpful. Thank you again
Vegetarian broth is far more appealing to me, the idea of consuming animal products such as meat and dairy is not conducuive to being cancer free. I love rocking chairs, and like the idea of using them for health benefits.
This was fantastic! Thank you 🙏🏼 Going in for partial hysterectomy in two days for fibroids. Not one mention from my surgeon/doc/gyno about how even if I retain my ovaries that they may fail. I had to do my own research to find that you also do not have to remove the cervix. Very important to know that you can keep your cervix as long as you have had normal pap smears and no history or family history of cervical cancer. My doc was very pushy about removing it because “you might get cancer” but I insisted that I did not want it removed. So hopefully all goes well.
You're very welcome! It's great that you did your own research and advocated for your preferences regarding the procedure. It's important to be well-informed and make decisions that feel right for you. I wish you all the best with your partial hysterectomy, and I hope everything goes smoothly. Take care! 🌼
I had a hysterectomy 2 weeks ago and this video helped me a lot Thank You. But i would like to know what type of suplements I can take. Only my uterus was removed due to endometeiosis. Thank You.
I'm so glad this video was helpful for you! Everyone is different regarding supplement needs; however, I can tell you that the supplements I take (the Lifelong Vitality Pack from doTERRA) is designed with general needs in mind and they are AWESOME. Feel free to contact me via this link if you want to learn more: www.mydoterra.com/femfusion/
I had a hysterectomy at 25. Had horrible endometriosis. Did 3 lap before I decide to have a hysterectomy. I had one ovary left in so I felt good. 9 years later the endometriosis came back from the one ovary. So I had it removed. Now with no ovaries at 34 years old I developed fibromyalgia. I’m a fitness nut and can no longer lift weights or run due to severe muscle and nerve pain. Had it now for 5 years. I do not take hormones. Not sure what to do. Acupuncture helps but is not a cure for sure. I got rid of one problem and in my opinion gained a worse one. Good luck to anyone deciding to do this. Hysterectomy that is I mean.
Hello, hope you have found relief for your fibromyalgia, check out different magnesium supplements for fibromyalgia, increase all B vitamins, especially B1 and B12, increase vitamin D, try colostrum and acetyl l-carnitine. Trial and error with vitamins is key to helping with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms. Good luck
@Katy Summer I did try bio identical hormone’s for awhile, did not make me feel good so I went off of them. I think I’m just better without the hormones.
@@yournamehere6939 hello! I do experiment a lot with vitamins but I have not tried colostrum I am currently feeling much better on vegan diet but it’s not a cure for sure, and I’ve been doing a different acupuncture treatment that has at least helped to get me back into moderate working out. And I’m grateful for that!!! I will try some of your other suggestions, I haven’t tried yet! Thank you!
My surgery is set for december . ablation is not an option for me , and any hormonal or blood clotting treatment is not an option for me because of my medical history . I want the next 80 days to be all about self care and prep for this major surgery . i am undergoing laparoscopy total hysterectomy with the ovaries staying in place . my plan includes pelvic strengthening , movement , freezer meal prep for my family . I am 37 years old . I am very nervous but keeping my uterus would have a huge impact on my quality of life. i enjoyed this video . I am hoping that removing my enlarged uterus will help with the frequency of urination , but i am also concerned about the risk of prolapse post op. hopefully the pelvic strengthening can help prevent this
Thank you for sharing! Great job preparing! Yes, pelvic strengthening! Have you seen my Lift Series for pelvic floor strengthening? th-cam.com/play/PLDputRBPsHFRw1KSB9o89XeNbTuD-Wi0t.html
Hi Jillian,I had a full abdominal hysterectomy 16 years ago. You know that question you want to ask, but dare not.. yes everything works the same afterwards. Gas, constipation, move if you can, don’t overdo it. Good luck x
I used to do Yoga at least twice per week. Now i can't do Yoga and barely able to walk any length of time as my stomach is so distended and heavy that causes so much back pain. So this is helpful to prepare for my Hysterectomy.
It was ANNOYING when I knew I needed a hysterectomy and I was being sent to rehab and a bunch of bs. Meanwhile this thing (two) DOUBLED IN SIZE AND WAS SUCKING THE LIFEEEEE OUT OF ME SND CAUSED ME SEVEREEEEE ANEMIA. I couldn’t think straight walk or even catch my breath and my back really really hurted.
Mine are the same, sucking the life out of me. My hemoglobin dropped to 5! I had to go to the emergency room for a transfusion. My partial surgery is scheduled for December 21st! I cannot wait.🙏🏽🙏🏽
If I had to do it over, I would have watched more videos, I would have feasted like a king until the fast the night before and took a bunch of vitamins. Most importantly, I would taken the alternative to the morphine because I didn't know I would have a reaction and the side effects were comparable to the surgery itself, a double whammy. Lastly, Don't complain to the nurses about being in agony especially with the morphine or they will think you are crazy.
@@michelleinfo-vlog2449 Well, my operation was in 2018 but I remember that 1. the Morphine did not help with the pain, it just knocked me out. 2. I couldn't eat anything because my body was shut down from the morphine, it couldn't process anything. I had fasted for the surgery prior, so I was pretty hungry afterward. I ended up having to vomit everything that I ate with an already painful gash in my stomach. It was a terribly medieval operation to experience.
@@reepurpose8712 When you found it I’m sure you were just following the doctors instructions is not your fault I feel really bad that you had to go through the nausea, vomiting. I’m not sure how I’d reacted as I’ve yet to experience it. I know based on observation that other IV pain meds also caused vomiting. I don’t think that you could eat that much if you had really large fibroids blocking you anyway. I’m glad you came through alright. Doesn’t it feel good and a huge relief to be able to live and tell about it?
I have been dealing with endometrial hyperplasia for 3 yrs. Due to other things happening with my body that hormonal connected, I have made the decision to agree to a hysterectomy. But I was going for the removal of my remaining ovary some people are commenting on keeping it. I had to have my left ovary removed in 1984 due to an ovarian cyst while pregnant. The ovarian cyst, ovary, and my first child was born by ceas. So due to being post-menopausal and past ovary history I thought it is a wise decision. I would like your feedback if possible?
Thanks for posting his video, great information I need to know... I had polyps removed twice as it was causing heavy/abnormal bleeding. I was on and off birth control pills and kind of resolve the abnormal bleeding for a while but it's happening again now, is there other choice beside getting hysterectomy?
I have Endometriosis and I am being encouraged to have a hysterectomy. Based on this video it doesn't seem wise to have ovaries removed, however I believe I have endo on them and I can't find a qualified Endo excision surgeon in my state of PA... so I feel I won't have a choice.
The relationship between a total hysterectomy, early menopause, and the risk of dementia is complex and still under study; consult a healthcare provider for personalized guidance. ~ Vibrant Support
I’m going to be 60 this Feb 2024 March I’m having a hysterectomy including removing my ovaries. At my age do I need my ovaries? My OBGYN said it will not make a difference.
The decision to remove ovaries during a hysterectomy can depend on various factors, including your overall health, medical history, and the reason for the surgery. Ovaries produce hormones, and their removal can induce menopause if you haven't reached it already. This may impact bone health, cardiovascular health, and other aspects. It's crucial to have a detailed discussion with your healthcare provider about the potential benefits and risks of removing the ovaries in your specific case. They can provide personalized advice based on your health history and the reason for the hysterectomy. Additionally, seeking a second opinion can sometimes offer valuable perspectives on such decisions. ~ Vibrant Support
After my myomectomy, my cervic opening is bent back and is against my viginal wall and not in the middle facing up as it should be, can these exercises fix this? What exercises gets it back into place?
I'm so sorry to hear about this concern after your surgery! The exercises we're discussing may not fix what you're describing; I would definitely consult with your surgeon to see how it can be resolved. Good luck...
just to add. If you've had a hormone driven ER/PR+ Breast cancer they will also recommend you remove your ovaries. In the end your choice, just highlighting.
Does early potential of onset dementia, alzheimers...etc from removing ovaries also apply if you are put on Bio identical hormone replacement immediately after oophorectomy ??
This is a question to discuss with your doc! There are pros and cons of hormone replacement therapy, but bioidentical hormones can be helpful for many women (in as small/conservative doses as possible).
That's a tough one! Be sure you're not holding your breath when you go up and down your stairs. And remember, the stronger you are going into surgery, the stronger you'll be coming out of surgery.
I would rather AVOID SURGERY. DUE to STRESS & constipation & memory loss & surgery CUTTING muscles inside. I hate pain & gassy bloatedness & shoulder pain. Ugh. Oh.grief. 😩😫 i hate pain. Share this CARE.WITH Others.
This is a boon of information, considering I just got a total 2 days ago. HOWEVER, I’d like to remind everyone that not all women have uteruses and not all people with uteruses are women.

3 weeks out from a total... so glad I finally did it! Fibroids was my issue
Me too!
Great tips for post-op. Engage pelvic floor prior to standing, sleep routine, and breathing. Talking to your body is healing too.
