In this video, we’re going to talk about how a hysterectomy can affect your body shape. Now, this is primarily for women who are considering a hysterectomy-you may want to think twice.
Here’s the problem: you have all kinds of ligaments that are attached to your torso, lower ribs, lower back, and pelvis that are cut. These ligaments are opposing your abdominal muscles.
When you lose this balance, it can create major weaknesses within your abdominal muscles. In turn, your stomach can collapse and fall forward, giving you the appearance of being fat.
A hysterectomy can also give you low back pain because it alters the curvature of your back. You may also experience weakness in your core.
There are many other side effects that you may experience after a hysterectomy, including:
• Low libido
• Bladder issues
• Bowel issues
• Increased risk of cardiovascular disease
• Increased risk of clots
• Depression
• Weight gain (on average, 25 lbs)
• Pain
Some people experience no symptoms at all. So before you make a decision, check with your doctor and talk about the risks.
The two top reasons for getting a hysterectomy is if you have endometriosis or fibroids.
Both of these conditions occur if you are estrogen dominant. This means that you’ll want to avoid estrogen and things that mimic estrogen.
Avoid GMO cotton, dairy, soy, and other GMO foods. You can try sea kelp and cruciferous vegetables. All of your foods should be organic.
If you’ve already had a hysterectomy, it’s a good idea to be on a keto and intermittent fasting plan. Keto and fasting will help induce autophagy, lower inflammation, and support a healthy metabolism.

A hysterectomy 20 years ago was the best thing I ever did! After several other surgeries for endometriosis and fibroids, I still had major issues. But... I kept waiting, wanting children, etc. I finally couldn't take it anymore with the horrendous pain and heavy periods lasting over a month and a half straight! I'm glad I had a complete hysterectomy! Once the hormones were balanced afterward, things were fine and I eventually got off them. I am 58 now and have lost 70 pounds with intermittent fasting and keto. So, it can be done. I was heavy both before and after the surgeries---way too many carbs, etc. Now I feel like a new person!😊

I’m almost three weeks out from my hysterectomy. My uterus was falling out of my body. I could tell you exactly where those ligaments were. They were aching daily. I had over 25 PT appts to try to alleviate it. My rectum and bladder were falling too. Sometimes it’s just unavoidable. I’m only 36 but, I have young kids. I need to be up and well for them. All of this to say, see a pelvic floor therapist before your surgery and don’t feel bad if the final answer is surgical one.

I feel great. Keeping at least one ovary PLUS IF/healthy low carb/healthy keto is definitely the key to avoiding the health symptoms mentioned. HUGE fibroid filled uterus with servere bleeding and anemia. Was 41 when I had the surgery. Had fatty liver, glucose intolerance, metabolic syndrome, HBP, IR and pre diabetc. I lost 50 pounds 1st year. ALL health risks gone. No more fatty liver and don't see endocrinologist anymore who was very good and gave me no meds just encouraged weight loss and walking with appt follow up every 6 mos. I need to lose 10 more and the 70 I gained during my fibroid filled nightmare will be gone gone gone. I have just started to walk an hour a day to help with the belly fat. I had PCOS body shape, inverted triangle, and belly is last place to go. Waist is now 38 inches from 45 and my goal is 34. I'm 5 foot 4.

Glad you got your health back!! I understand you are at a healthier weight, but did your overally body shape or body composition change after? Like how the remaining fat was distributed? I just ask because I am estrogen dominant...really curvy, typical hour glass shape even while overweight, and I'm interested to know if there will be a major change to body shape post hysterectomy. I carry most of my weight in my thighs, legs, and chest...and other than grace 😭... I think the distrubution of fat is one of the main things that has kept me healthy despite being obese...since belly fat is usually what drives metabolic issues. I hope it doesn't override genetics. I have been struggling to get the weight off but think it is due to hormonal issues & endometriosis.

I had a LEEP last year due to pre cancerous cells (CIN2). I urinate all day and I experience constipation. I can’t keep weight off. I don’t want the hysterectomy but I also don’t want to walk around like this with all this pressure and discomfort either. So I’m scheduling it for this year.

I had EVERYTHING removed 4 years ago ...I was 48. I had uterine cancer, and through this entire process, it was discovered I have Lynch Syndrome which significantly raises my chances for cancer vs the general public. My surgery was performed with a robot and my uterus was removed through my vagina. Only 4 small incisions. So glad my ovaries were taken too, because my risk is much higher for ovarian cancer as well. I haven't had many problems and truthfully am incredibly relieved I don't have to deal with heavy painful periods anymore. It was miserable! But I do have lower back and hip pain. I'm not sure if its from the surgery or pre-existing issues as I have had those issues for over 20 years ...its just a bit more constant now. I did not lose my libido. Its not like it was in my 20's, but it already wasn't. Lol Truthfully? I'm glad its all gone. If I could have taken a pill and my uterus would have fallen out, I would have done it years ago. It was a constant source of pain and massive clots that looked like my liver fell out. Anyways, this is just my experience. Everyone is different and needs to consider the options in relation to their situation. I recommend A good Hysterectomy support site like Hyster Sisters when considering A hysterectomy.

Excellent comment. I had a vaginal hysterectomy 3 years ago (at age 50) and I'm so glad to be rid of the problems. Fibroids were causing excessive bleeding to the point of transfusions. I kept one ovary. Only issue was thyroid got more hypo. Gained about 15 pounds (also quit smoking at that time) but after discovering intermittent fasting, have lost 10 of it. Sometimes, a hysterectomy is needed. And I love the hyster sisters website. They answered a lot of my concerns and were a realistic source of information and comfort. How about a video on how to strengthen our core after a hysterectomy?

My hysterectomy was the best decision I ever made ...I actually lost weight and my libido is just as strong as it was before if not even stronger ... however I am a competitive runner so the concerns of ligament strain aren’t as much of an issue for me as the average sedentary person... i work very hard to break up scar tissue and strengthen my abs and pelvic floor ... I definitely implemented intermittent fasting and keto for about three months after my hysterectomy which definitely helped with recovery. Everyone is different.

Things doctors never explain to patients. I was diagnosed with fibroids and the doctor was doing his darndest on pushing for a hysterectomy despite the other options that can save my uterus. This is a vital organ and only in life challenging circumstances, I feel that only then that discussion should be brought up instead of pushing it on patients to make their job easier despite the fact that a woman’s life will be permanently affected once this is done.

I am almost 2wks post-of from my total hysto (kept ovaries). I am only 29 but Endo, Adeno, and constant bleeding were destroying my health and my daily life. The pain was debilitating and keeping me from my kids, from living. I had to be in bed with a heating pad on oxycodone just to get through it. After I had my last baby & we’d tried every non surgical option to help my pain and bleeding, I decided I’d had enough. It was a heavy decision to make, but I’m convinced it’s given me my life back. I’ve actually lost almost 10lbs since my surgery. I plan to get into pelvic floor therapy, but I’m active and I want to thrive now that my uterus isn’t draining the life from me. It’s not been easy and recovery has been harder than I expected, but given a life free of pain and the health complications my uterus was causing, I think I have a chance to be even healthier than before, and be able to keep up with my children without the nonstop bleeding and pain.

Enlarged Uterus was removed x2 keyhole and x1 cut. Constipation is real, tummy pains are real, coughing and sneezing hurts like hell, but I'm so happy its gone. I did try to reduce the size of fibroids by changing to keto, but they grew bigger in the last 12 months, I am pre-menapausal, so my hormones are all over the place. At this time, fasting is helping so so much and I'm back on keto, drinking lots if lemon water, but sussing out my body atm, seeing what I can and can't eat...she's been through alot. 💗💗💗

About 3 years ago, I had endometrial hyperplasia and my gynae recommended hysterectomy which I rejected. I was already post-menopausal. Somehow, I didn't want to go for the surgery. Today, I am so glad to learn what the procedure can do to me. I started keto diet especially at first ( and much later IF ), and ate cruciferous veggies almost daily. Still eating them. The thickness of the uterus lining has since gone down to 3 mm. Anything more than 5mm is not good. Thank Dr Berg, I happened to come across your videos and they helped to start my keto and IF journey and keep my uterus lol.

I had really severe endometriosis. At 33 I had a TAH. I was cut from hip to hip due to the excessive amount of scar tissue I had. My doctor was brilliant. Yes, I've gained a lot of weight and have an awful stomach apron, but I'll take that over the endometriosis pain any day. Best thing I ever did.

Hysterectomy was the worst thing I had done! 30 yrs later I’m suffering from losing my flat stomach to a pouch where I was cut across, 3 yrs of sensitivity in the area even the bed sheets were painful to the touch. I’ve lost elasticity in my internal abdominal and now facing my bladder hanging out if I stand too long or go for a walk, shopping, bending down to pick up things from floor bottom shelves! Very uncomfortable. Wished I had known of the ketogenic regimen instead of removing my uterus because of fibrosis! Dr Berg is right rethink before you have hysterectomy. In speaking with my friends also have had to deal with prolapse. Everyone I’ve spoken have had difficulties. RECONSIDER, listen to Dr Berg. He’s never ever been wrong!

Dr Berg. I worked and breathed health care for years and to this day. I did everything natural to help with the fibroids. Had natural heathy periods for decades and was shocked to find out by 44yrs of age that I had fibriods until I was told by my mother and other female family members that it was in the family as they say hereditary. Stubborn to believe and angry that I did everything I thought was doing right with my healthy choices. I never could relate or understood the period problems women had until this change. Went from having normal 4/5 days perfect periods to 21 days of nonstop bleeding. I did everything natural no birth control no tampons etc and it was worse because my body was not excepting it. After then getting all the extra unfortunate negative effects of this with IBS, nausea, anemia, emotional outbursts, panic attacks, and the fibroids were multiplying to a point I was holding grapefruits in my uterus etc..I had to make a choice with bleeding thru everything at work and home to getting back to me again I finally made the right decision for me and did the operation with an amazing Doctor specialized in the hysterectomy and he promised to try to save my uterus and not to take out my ovaries. Stayed in the hospital for 4 days. That was important. Why I say is my friend six months later had the operation with a basic doctor who insisted to take out everything. She was out of the hospital with her insurance in 24 hours 😳 and listened and was never the same after. They told her she could go back to work within the weeks 😧. She gained a lot of weight and emotionally lost her spirit. She was also bitter at me for healing over the years and she did not. It took me little over 2 year with still healthy lifestyle and appropriate exercise determination on strengthening my core to get back my feelings in my stomach muscles. I then had an opening still on where the fibroid was originally and the excess omentum fat filled the gap that the wall muscle didn't close and it looked like I was pregnant so I got a abdonminoplasty surgery and it was the best decision I did. Also found a specialist. That also took a year with Keto and IF to get me back from my strengthen core. I could do yoga again and not feel sensitivity to anything that touched my stomach region. 4 years now from the surgery and still doing natural Keto and healthy choices I have never looked back disappointed in my decisions. I have tried to educate others on options if they want the help otherwise people choose to accept their fate. We are all different and to me as you say you have to keep up the regime and not think its just overnight things will just get better. We have to always work out our health and always educate ourselves on this topic.

Hi! I’m 24 years old, I had thyroid cancer when I was 20 and my whole thyroid was removed and I had a radiotherapy. Last year, at age 23, I had a chronic anemia due to a 10 cm tumor on my uterus, I had to get it removed through a hysterectomy. So far, no bad symptoms besides a bit of constipation now and then but I’m worried about my weight as I don’t want to get any other sicknesses. I’m 5’5, weight 80 kg and I’ve been struggling with an eating disorder, depression and overall this pandemic situation. I do a 15 h fasting and try not to eat carbs plus I do 10 mins of rope jumping bc is the only thing is available and I enjoy doing. But! So far I don’t see any changes at all :(, it’s been...a year. I really appreciate your videos and I’ll be really thankful if you could provide me some advice on my diet or things I can do to lose weight. Thank you!

Request for an estrogen level blood test. If you are already in menopausal stage might as well go through it as fibroids may cause disturbing irregular menses and cause possible future problems eg cancer . Choose robotic surgery method, may cost a bit more. it is less painful & speedy recovery and better healing than open cut surgery. I had gone through it and i am well now. No weight gains. What we eat is what we are. Good luck.

I had a hysterectomy (laparoscopy/vaginal) with salpingo-oophorectomy in 2011 at age 42 1/2. I had very painful intercourse, endometriosis, fibroid tumors, uterine cysts, cervical displaysia and bled every day for an entire year before insurance would cover it. I didn't gain weight but I've had major back issues (I already had them but now it's worse) that required surgery in 2022. I also have permanent scar tissue internally because I did too much too soon. Not seeing but 2 little scars on my lower abdomenal area and one in my belly button, it tricks you, making you forget you had major surgery. I first tore open one of the ab spots then a few weeks later I ripped one of the internal staples out and now I have permanent scar tissue that makes intercourse even more painful then before. Also total loss of libido and extreme dryness. But I took a drug called osphena that worked wonders! In 2016 I got breast cancer (stage 3). I was told it possibly could have come from daily osteoporosis (that I also got after surgery) injections. I was told no more osphena because of breast cancer (they weren't sure at the time if there was a connection). Going through 2 1/2 years of different types of chemo, radiation and targeted drugs, the tissue is even thinner and more dry. But I was told if I hadn't gotten the hysterectomy my cancer could have become hormonal and became estrogen/progesterone positive. So yes I'm glad I had the surgery but I wish I'd been prepared for the side effects that at 55 I still have

I think it should be repeated that some people don’t have any issues or side effects. There are so many variables that need to be considered. Second opinions and researching doctors that specialize and perform these surgeries daily is not only smart but absolutely necessary. The other thing that needs to be said is that physical therapy can remedy many of the physio issues that he mentioned. Don’t be too discouraged by this information! Inform yourself and make the best decision for YOU.

I also want to add that with physical therapy I’ve learned that I must exercise a little differently than I used to. I’ve learned new methods to make sure that I’m not “baring down through my abdominal wall” while I perform many exercises. I choose to avoid exercises that add negative pressure to my abdomen. This is all by choice and what works best for me in order to avoid prolapsing in the future. I follow my Drs orders and I don’t do things that would be risky like lifting “too heavy” or running. I’ve learned to swim rather than run for instance and I still lift but I concentrate more on reps than maxing out. I watched my best friend go through a second repair after running and lifting heavy so.... lesson learned.

I don't regret my choice, not having body parts where they don't belong has fixed the bladder issues that came with that.

And some people like myself will not even consider it as an option. I had multiple painful bleeding fibroids. I did a uterine fibroid embolization which is completed through a small incision the size of a pencil tip in my femoral artery which the doctor thread a tube through where he deposited microspheres inside the arteries feeding the fibroids and basically cut off their supply and kills the fibroid that day. I had relief from bleeding, cramps, and frequent bathroom trips THAT DAY. Plus I got sleep glorious sleep. And improved moods and outlook on LIFE! Those of you who want OPTIONS beyond hysterectomy would be well advised to check out UFE first!

So she suffered through stuff for 40 years. The last doctors to see her couldn't figure out why she was sick so often. They just said oh she has osteoporosis really bad but never said why. They never said why her heart bad. They just threw incomprehensible terms at me. It turns out, through Dr. Berg, that it was the hysterectomy that started all of these problems. I'm not trusting any doctor. Naturopathic doctors are my go to and even then I diagnose myself. My doctor always asks me what I think not what she thinks should happen. So far though I don't have any problems other than trying to get into ketosis. ;)

I had bladder issues, lower back and abdominal pain before I had a hysterectomy. But after the partial hysterectomy (kept my ovaries), I have never been able to regain the strength of my lower back, even after many different physical therapy treatments. Though I had endometriosis that had created scar tissue that had attached to my bowel, so the pain caused from that is better. Otherwise, I'm still in constant pain and can't spend much more than 20 minutes on my feet without feeling the need to rest my back. I'm looking into getting a custom made corset to help support since I have seen next to no improvement in regaining the strength after almost 10 years. On the plus side, I have noticed very little difference in my body shape accept for the looser belly flab that won't tighten up. But I'm thin so it is barely noticeable. But I am on a keto diet with IF.

After my 4 C sections and a hysterectomy, the sides of my thighs are very tender, if I get hit or bumped it hurts really bad. People think I’m crazy, but it’s true. It’s been And I have bladder issues. And weight gain. My lower back is always hurting.... I had cysts and a lot of fibroids.

Im on my 1 year after hysterectomy. I feel better and no more pain but I really gained 30lbs. I tried keto and IF before I decided to do hysterectomy. I lose weight but my pain is still horrible that time.

My aunt had a full hysterectomy when she was 19! She hasn't been the same since and she's in her mid 50s. She went into early menopause, she could lose any weight, she stayed depressed for years and the hot flashes looked like they drove her insane, not to mention that they never gave her any type of body compression so her tummy stayed big and I'm top of that, she was never able to have kids because of the hysterectomy. I feel so sad for her. If there is some type of life-threatening issue going on to where you're forced to have a hysterectomy then I guess you have no choice, however, if you can avoid it especially if you want kids I wouldnt choose it

I had to have a total hysterectomy, I’m Stage 4 Endometriosis. My surgeon said she’d never seen my endo damage before on anyone else. Her description was “it looked like someone poured concrete on your insides”. What should have taken 1.5 hours, took her 4 hours to scrape and burn that and my organs out. Now I’m on HRT. I did notice my core was weakened tremendously, but I’m working on it. My tummy is vanishing now that I’ve been doing IF, down 35lbs and feeling GREAT! I love the idea of keto but do we really have to weigh everything we eat?
