The biggest problem I see isn’t always a lack of information.

It’s a lack of support.

Every day I speak to people who are overwhelmed, frightened, second-guessing themselves and desperately searching for answers and reassurance.

You’ve joined Facebook groups.
You’ve Googled everything.
You’ve watched endless videos.

And somehow you feel even more confused than when you started.

Because information isn’t the same as support.

That’s exactly why I created the Hysterectomy Support Hub.

A private space away from the noise of social media where you can immediately access:

Pre-op prep and recovery programs
Expert guidance and resources
Weekly live support calls
A community of people who genuinely understand
Direct messaging access to me when you need answers and reassurance right now.

Because sometimes what you need isn’t another article or opinion.

Sometimes you need to ask:

“How can I prepare”

“Is this normal?”

“Should I be worried about this?”

“Has anyone else experienced this?”

“How do I find some quiet in my brain?”

And then get an answer from someone who understands.

If you are preparing for surgery, recovering from surgery or struggling with menopause, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I’ve supported thousands of people through their hysterectomy journeys, and I’d love to support you too.

I had a (rainy ☔️!) catch up with someone that I supported around six months ago today.

Her first words were:

"Kelly, I can't believe how good I feel now."

And that's important to share with you all.

Because when we are anxious or afraid, our brains naturally focus on anything that might confirm those fears. It's part of our fight-or-flight response and our nervous system's way of trying to protect us.

Anxiety makes your attention gravitate towards potential threats. That's why the difficult posts often stand out, grab our attention and stick in our minds.

It doesn't mean positive outcomes aren’t there. It just means your brain is paying more attention to the things that feel risky or uncertain.

But I promise they are there.

How is it June already 🤷‍♀️!

It’s pouring with rain here in the UK, and I’ve just come off of a group support call so I’m glad that I’ll not have to water the garden tonight 🌼🌷!

I know lots of you have surgery coming up this month - don’t panic!

This week I’m busy updating and adding new resources to the Hysterectomy Support Hub.

I am also updating the website - particularly my 1-1 hysterectomy support sessions. So if it all disappears then it’s because I’ve broken it and am panicking somewhere 😂!

Next week I’ll be sharing the details of my new online hysterectomy info sessions. I’d love to meet more of you face to face!

Oh, and the free guides are getting a makeover also ✅!

I’ll never be “finished” here .. but it’s all imperfectly doing what it needs to!

If you want to check out the website resources then I’d advise you to do it before I break everything, details are in the comments as always 👇.

Let me know what you have planned for June, hysterectomy related or not!

The things I get asked about the most in no particular order are:

1. The vaginal cuff and removing or keeping the cervix,

2. Will I go into menopause and keeping or removing ovaries,

3. Will my s*x life / ability to or**sm be affected?

4. How will I cope with recovery and what should I buy to help me?

5. When can I return to work and what if I don’t feel ready?

6. Will I be in pain and will I get enough pain relief?

7. What pre and post op instructions should I get or follow?

8. Will I bleed and for how long?

9. Will I put on weight?

10. How do I know when something is wrong?

As someone whose world revolves around supporting people through a hysterectomy, I get asked these questions pretty much every day.

The Hysterectomy Support Hub is where I support you with these questions and any others that you might have in person, and where every single one of my programs and resources live.

When you join you get immediate access to everything including me! 12 years of expertise all in one place.

The details are in the first comment👇

What questions did you have, or what questions are burning in your head right now?

Don’t underestimate a hysterectomy recovery and hot weather combo 🔥.

Or the audacity of hot flushes and flashes combined with hot temperatures 🫠.

Recovering from surgery is hard enough without outside temperatures suddenly turning your house into the surface of the sun.

It doesn’t happen often here in the U.K. and when it does, it’s mostly short lived, but .. contrary to popular belief, we don’t do “weather” very well 🤣!

Some of you live with 35 degree heat or even hotter for months every year, but the U.K. melts. Quite literally, roads and rails start to melt!!

Most of us here don’t have air con as standard, because it isn’t often needed.

Right now our little desktop fans are fighting for their lives.
Ice packs melt in about 7 minutes.
Upstairs bedrooms feel illegal.
Touching another human (let alone thinking of doing anything else!) is totally off limits.
Hot flushes? Absolutely disrespectful.

I’m seeing people worrying because they suddenly feel more swollen, more tired, more emotional or more uncomfortable.

So this is just a little reminder.

Unusual heat can make recovery (and menopause!) feel SO much harder.

You can feel like you were doing “better” and then suddenly feel wiped out again.

That doesn’t mean something is wrong.

Your body is already healing from a big surgery. Add dehydration, poor sleep, overheating and hot flushes/flashes into the mix and it can make you feel far rougher.

A few things that can help:

Drink way more water than you think you need.
Rest before you get exhausted, not after.
Cool packs/frozen water bottles wrapped in a towel,
Keep curtains/blinds shut during the day if your house turns into a greenhouse.
Loose clothes are your best friend right now.
If you are having hot flushes, little handheld fans become emotional support devices.

And don’t apologise for doing less. A bit of summer doesn’t mean you need to be outside doing a BBQ or filling the paddling pool, or mowing the lawn.

You are not lazy,
You are not being selfish,
You are not “going backwards.”

You are recovering from a big surgery, and when the weather wherever you are is really hot, that is hard on the body.

A decent fan is well worth the investment if you don’t have air-con!

This week I had one of those moments where I stopped and really looked at what my hysterectomy support has become, what it means, and what it does.

The thing that started as a little Facebook support group all those years ago?

It started because I was desperately trying to create the kind of hysterectomy support I wish had existed when I was feeling frightened and alone.

It’s grown into something far bigger than I ever imagined.

Not because of clever funnels.
Not because of marketing tricks.
Not because I built some polished “perfect” business model.

They are NOT where my skills lie 😂!

It’s because people came and people stayed.

People trusted me with their fear.
Their stories.
Their surgeries.
Their recovery.
Their panic spirals at midnight.
Their grief.
Their relief.
Their exhaustion.
Their “I don’t know if this is normal.”

And over time, the Hysterectomy Support Hub became more than just information.

It is a place where people land when they need to feel safe, understood and less alone.

It matters massively to me.

There are people inside this community who have been here for years.

People who joined terrified or doubtful before surgery, and stayed to support others afterwards.

People who show up in the comments reassuring strangers.
People answering questions at ridiculous hours.
People quietly holding space for someone having an awful day.

That kind of support cannot be faked.
You cannot manufacture that with branding or fancy business stuff.

Everything exists because my communities are built on genuine care and real knowledge.

And that’s why the Hub will never be about pressure tactics, fake urgency or manipulative marketing.

It’s all about building something sustainable.
Something safe.
Something honest.
Something that genuinely helps people through one of the most vulnerable experiences of their lives.

The Hub isn’t “content.”

It’s ongoing support.
It’s preparation.
It’s recovery guidance.
It’s community.
It’s weekly live support calls.
It’s education mixed with compassion and honesty.

Every single day I’m grateful this space exists because I know how badly people need it.

If you have been sitting quietly thinking:
“I think I need more support than this…”

You probably do.

And you’d be very welcome inside the Hysterectomy Support Hub. The details are below if you fancy a browse 👇.

I’d love to support you.

Just a few things that you might learn or feel when you have a hysterectomy.

Patience,
How to ask for help,
Grieving changes - expected or unexpected,
Feeling relief,
Feeling fear,
Feeling stronger,
Questioning everything that is happening,
Worrying about every twinge,
Not even knowing how you feel.

And, occasionally crying, even if it is just because because your leggings touched your incision weirdly.

There isn’t always any rhyme or reason.

Nothing is right or wrong.

If you need hysterectomy support, then please reach out and I’ll share the ways that I can help you.

No pressure. You reach out, and I hold you from there.

WTAF is it with hair 🤦‍♀️.

Mine is crazy, and I know hair is a massive issue for many either post surgery or in menopause.

Some lose hair (anaesthetic and hormones can really hurt our hair for a while!) and some, well it just changes in menopause. Hormones again.

And it’s not just the never ending battle with the grey ..

My hair has always been thick.

And straight. Very straight.

I used to perm it in my younger days, always aiming for the Kylie corkscrews and failing massively 🤣!

It was very dry post hysterectomy for many months - and definitely not glossy.

Enter menopause. Now it’s still thick, BUT I lose handfuls of it daily.

It’s everywhere in my house and HOW does it end up you know, down there .. many’s the time that I’ve suddenly discovered that a long head hair has migrated to live right in an uncomfortable place as if it’s a cheese slicer 🫣.

But. It’s curly now. Not those corkscrew curls that I’ve always wanted, but wild curly. Untameable.

It’s so different to just a few years ago. I don’t know what it’s going to do next …

And I hate going to the hairdresser. I hate everything about having a hair cut.

But I’m actually considering it .. at what age do we go for a sensible bob? Is it even called that anymore 🤷‍♀️?

Anyway. I take biotin. I take collagen.

And here is what my friendly little A.I friend has just advised me in case it helps anyone here:

Protein treatments, hair becomes more fragile with lower oestrogen, so a weekly protein mask (or even an egg mask if you’re budget-friendly) helps strengthen the shaft and reduce breakage.

Switch to a scalp-first approach, hair thinning in menopause often starts at the scalp. Use a gentle scalp serum or oil (rosemary oil has decent evidence behind it) and massage it in a few times a week to stimulate circulation.

Ditch the heat where you can, hormone-related hair issues make it more prone to snapping. Air dry when possible and drop the temperature on any tools you do use.

Anyway. I’ve just ordered extra bobbles. You can get flashing ones these days. I went for plain black but I was tempted 🤭!

I’ll keep you posted on the hair cut situation ..
