Hysterectomy AND a toddler mom?
In today’s episode, I sit down with @drjocelynwallace, a physical therapist, Level 2 @CrossFit Trainer, & toddler mom, to discuss her personal & professional journey through fibroids, high-risk pregnancy, & hysterectomy.
Having undergone 2 open myomectomies, a C-section, & ultimately a total hysterectomy, Dr. Wallace shares invaluable insights on healing after major surgery, managing fibroids as a young mom, & navigating early perimenopause.
In this episode, we cover:
🔹Living with fibroids & the journey to motherhood

🔹Key post-surgery care tips
🔹How to manage a missed diagnosis

This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with fibroids, reproductive health challenges, or navigating pelvic surgery like a hysterectomy.
