In this video, I describe issues I face after pelvic organ prolapse repair surgery. I discuss pain during the last few days of having my suprapubic catheter, the process of having it removed, and relief once it was gone. I also discuss lingering stitches pain, the use of estrogen cream for healing, and some of the emotional struggles I faced.

AMAZON LINK TO MY FAVORITE LEGGINGS: I recommend the “plus size” for anyone larger than a size 4. They’re much more stretchy and comfortable.
