SURGERY + POSTOPERATIVE SUPPORT

BY AMOULA THE DOULA

Reproductive and Gynecological Surgery Support – 

Getting ready for surgery is not easy. Managing your anxiety and worry can be overwhelming, especially if the people you need for support are not available. As your doula, I am here to help and be your support, whether you need to have surgery to resolve adenomyosis, endometriosis, gynecologic cancers, heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding, fibroids, uterine (or multi-organ) prolapse(s), or if you are having a gender affirming surgery, or having a lumpectomy, or mastectomy. We can work together to reach the best state of calm before the big day. I am available to stand by your side in appointments, and together we will also prepare for the expectations after the surgery.
