Had my ovaries and tubes out 4 days ago and the best thing for me was drinking a packet of mirelax every morning 3 days before surgury and every morning after ,its been 4 days and I tolorate prunes so eat a 4 to 5 daily with that horrible drink! ugh! But honestly has been the trick.Good luck ladies! Its not as easy as everyone makes out so don't let anyone minimize what you are feeling.I am also 65 so its harder when you are older to heal fast .

I had my hysterectomy on September 26 and 10 days post I had no appetite and was basically surviving on biscuits and porridge. However after all those days I kept feeling less of myself and always tired, as there had been nights I had not slept a wink. I know I had to do something about this as I should have been feeling better daily but it was not happening. I came across this video on Friday October 07 and started the meal plan as stated. That first night I slept the entire night and today Sunday October 09 I have more energy, walking much better with less pain on the incision and have drastically improved within 2-3 days. A million kudos goes out to you because I really felt like life was over for me but you brought me back to life. Honestly your gynecologist fails to address these follow up instructions which is just as important as the surgery itself. Thanks for bringing my life back into perspective! Your breathing and pelvic exercise videos are also helpful.Keep up the great work! 👍

I’ve managed it very well with herbal supplements but if I go without the supplements for more than 3 days I start feeling the symptoms. to be honest my hormones are just all out of wack! lol I’d live with the fibroids if they were small & didn’t cause flooding but I just can’t live like this anymore, plus they’ve enlarged the uterus as well so I need my body back, sick of looking pregnant

@michellephysio2 жыл бұрын
@Val P. yes and yes Val, spices can help with bowel motility however they are also potential causes of gas and bloating. You will find that MirLAX will keep the stool soft without the bloating, it's an excellent stool softener and promotes gut motility without causing dependency. Just check with your pharmacist first, many women are routinely placed on an osmotic laxative post op for at least 6 weeks. You may have had some temporary lactose intolerance post op, lactose free milk and yogurt can help with this in the early stages too. Hope this info helps and all the best for your recovery

Thanks for the video. So glad I found your channel. Will prune or pear juice help with softening stools and not produce much gas as compared to dried prune and raw pear?

I had my full hysterectomy in November last year and want to lose weight. I have tried exercise and had pain in the abdomen area so have stopped. Would you be able to give me advise on exercises and a diet program I can use to lose weight?
@michellephysio2 жыл бұрын
@Shanaella Shantie Kawi yes this is a common and troubling issue many women face. In terms of exercises, the best exercises are usually low-impact cardio exercises such as stationary bike. Wearing good support briefs can help if you intend to walk or use an elliptical machine for weight management. In terms of diet, the regular dietary advice applies along the lines of a Mediterranean style diet and you may like to watch this video for more information where I talk with a dietician about weight management (disregard the fact that this is for men - same applies for women) kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXipaXalapxjm8U

I really feel that I was unprepared for my hysterectomy or maybe even deceived. I’m searching for ways to relieve my pain after 3 weeks on Monday. Good thing I’m allergic to practically everything. My food list is very small. I was already post meno. No hot flashes or anything of the such. Just a lot of freakin pain.

On top of that my Doctor had me searching for magnesium citrate. It’s on recall. I phoned the office. Left a message. No one returned my call. I should’ve cancelled my surgery then.

Dr. I keep waking up to urinate, intermittent burning of the thighs, bubbly urine but no protein, intermittent pain on the right side of back and my A1C is 5.2, Urine is 8 which is high, BUN/creatinine Ratio is 8 which is one point lower than last year, cholesterol total is 241 while the LDL is 174, stool has been looking bloody after drinking Lakewood Beet Juice and I’m not sure if that’s normal. Please help!!!
@TheHatchetwoman2 жыл бұрын
Consuming beets colors your urine and even your poop. This is probably what's causing the bloody-looking urine.
@michellephysio2 жыл бұрын
@Brand Execute yes beetroot juice can make the stool appear red, simple way to check is to stop drinking the juice for a couple of days and note the colour. If it continues to appear red then see your doctor for assessment

Hey Michelle, every time I go toilet my body tenses up and anus closes, my body fights the urge to go toilet…this is because I’m suffering from an Amal fissure, do you know how I can break out of this cycle, it’s really hard to deal with and I don’t know what to do anymore, thanks
@michellephysio2 жыл бұрын
@Jake Nikiforidis yes this is a problem and I understand what you’re saying. There are a number of things to do to manage fissure and bowel emptying 1. Stool softeners are critical and for a good 3 months while the fissure heals 2. Use a topical rectal cream/ointment usually containing glyceryl trinitrate can relieve pain and promote healing (speak with the pharmacist) as these can provide pain relief during emptying and finally use the moo to poo technique focusing on the abdo bulge forward during emptying as doing this relaxes the anal sphincter see here kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3XOamaZq790q80 hope all this helps you understand the way forward to manage Jake, all the best 🙏

Hello. I came up here and read your experience about your surgery. I also undergo surgery. They removed my whole uterine together with both ovaries because of endometriosis. Im now in a third week of my recovery. Im experiencing fart time to time and pooping occasionally because my diet is more on veggies, one egg evey meal and small portion of meat and fish. Im just wondering why is my poop is dark. Tho it's not watery. Ita a bit solid but it's black. I stop taking vitamins that might cause stool darkening. (Black) like iron supplements. But it's just the same color as of now. Do you experience the same? How😂are😂you now? Sorry for my English. Im not fluent .
