Use the ‘Brace and Bulge’ bowel emptying technique while sitting on toilet after hysterectomy:

• Lean forward while sitting, and keep your back straightened.
• Rest either your hands or elbows on your knees to provide support to your upper body.

• Wear either toilet paper or a pad in the initial days following hysterectomy
• Never exert too much pressure while trying to empty your bowels as it can render your pelvic floor damaged.
