What about your hormones, your energy, your metabolism, and how your body feels in the weeks and months that follow?

In this episode, we’re diving deep into how to prepare and recover from a hysterectomy — not just physically, but hormonally and metabolically.

This is for the woman who wants to go into surgery empowered, not fearful — and come out the other side with a plan to heal, rebalance, and thrive.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

✅ How to prepare your body before surgery — optimizing inflammation, protein intake, nutrient levels, and gut health so healing is faster.

✅ What really happens to your hormones after a partial or full hysterectomy — and what symptoms to expect (even if your ovaries are left in).

✅ How to support your liver and thyroid post-surgery for better hormone clearance and energy.

✅ The most important nutrients for wound healing, tissue repair, and restoring energy.

✅ How to get back into exercise — and what to do to protect your metabolism while you recover.

✅ How to manage the emotional side — grief, identity, and the hormonal rollercoaster no one warns you about.

This isn’t just about recovery — it’s about rebuilding your body with intention.

Whether your surgery is scheduled, recent, or years ago, this episode will help you understand what’s happening, what to expect, and what steps can make all the difference in your healing journey.
