Recovering alone 4 weeks post hysterectomy (TAH)

Hello to all
So grateful for this site !! What a blessing!
I had a Tah kept ovaries ...I have had no problems ..still a little sore but doing well..however I was so anemic for 10 years I always had dark circles under my eyes and hair loss..iam wondering now that my dr has told me iam no longer anemic...How long till I see a change in skin and hair and whats recommended to use to help coconut oil?
Thankyou for reading my post and I pray you all are recovering well.

Glad you have had such a great recovery, it's nice to hear positive stories from other sisters. Coconut oil can't hurt, try it, I heard over the counter pre natal vitamins do wonders for your hair and skin. I think you can get them at the vitamin shoppe.

Thankyou! And yes I do take vitamins but I think because of how anemic I was it really caused the problem...maybe now in couple months as my body realizes it can keep the nutrients and not the huge fibroid my over all health will improve thanku for responding

What kind of surgery did you have?

I had the DaVinci hysterectomy taking everything except the left ovary.
