From customers: “Do you have tips for surgery recovery from my c-section?” “I’m recovering from a hysterectomy. Do you have suggestions for me?”
Indeed!
We’ve collected tips from other women for post-op recovery from similar surgeries: like hysterectomy, c-section, tummy tuck, hernia repair, organ transplant, and other abdominal surgeries: Post Op Surgery Recovery Tips.
From managing pain to taking a shower to incisions to tummy relief, we have ideas for you to try for your comfort and relief.
Years ago – we offered only the abdominal binder and suggested to our customers that they use a cold pack between the binder and their tummy for added cooling relief. It was a no brainer for women that needed compression and some cooling relief.
It was a stroke of genius that we partnered with the manufacturer, asking them to create another binder for us – WITH a pocket just to hold a cold pack (or a warming pack) because we knew it would be easier to manage with those slippery cold packs that liked to slide through and only the floor when moving about.
And so – our Pocket binder is perfect – we think! It comes with 2 cold/hot packs that you can freeze or warm to use as you need.

Although hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is considered a safe and effective way to treat perimenopause symptoms, it still carries certain risks.
Because of this, many people have turned to home remedies and other holistic methods to help ease their symptoms.
While some of these therapies are backed by clinical research, many others have only scant or anecdotal evidence to support their use.
Always talk to your doctor or other healthcare provider before you try any alternative treatment. They can discuss possible dosage, side effects, and interactions with you.
When you’re going through perimenopause, you may find that what you eat triggers certain symptoms.
Spiking blood sugar levels, for example, can lead to irritability and zap your energy. Dehydration can lead to increased hot flashes. And eating food high in sodium can make you retain water, making you feel bloated.
You may find that reducing the amount of refined, processed, and preservative-heavy foods in your diet improves how you feel.
Limiting stimulants like coffee and tea may help reduce hot flashes. Spicy food may alsocontribute to the feeling of heat rising in your body.
Alcohol has been linked to making hot flashes worse, so indulge in moderation or cut it out completely.
As you age, your risk of osteoporosis increases. Vitamin D, which helps your body absorb calcium, is also essential. Consuming foods rich in calcium and vitamin D won’t just make your bones stronger, but can also boost your mood.
