In this short YouTube segment, the speaker directly answers the question, “Can I wear scanties after a hysterectomy?” and strongly recommends them. She explains that scanties feature a highly flexible fabric, a super‑soft wide waistband, and breathable cotton panels, all of which accommodate post‑surgical swelling, a bloated belly, and tender healing areas without applying pressure. The speaker cites feedback from customers who shared a hysterectomy support‑group link, noting that these women found scanties to be the only underwear they could comfortably wear after surgery. She emphasizes that the garment’s flexibility lets it move with the body, keeping the wearer cool and comfortable while focusing on recovery. The overall message is that scanties are a practical, comfortable choice for anyone recovering from hysterectomy or similar surgeries that cause abdominal bloating and tenderness.

Can I wear scanties after a hysterectomy? Yes, yes you can. And I have some fabulous customers who have told me that they were the only thing that they could wear after hysterectomy surgery. In fact, they shared the link to the hysterectomy support group because they were so fantastic. Scanties have superior flex in the fabric, so they are not tight on anywhere of your body. You know how like a tight waistband or something, if you've got Swelly belly, which it can happen with the hysterectomy surgery afterwards, you're going to be bigger. So anything that fit you when your stomach wasn't bloated, um, is going to feel tight and put pressure on that already tender area. Scanties can flex with your body, so you won't even know, like, that they won't be tight. Sorry, you won't— you will know you've had surgery. I'm not going to— I'm not going to beat around the bush on that part, but Underwear will not be your problem. The super soft wide waistband will just make it— can sit softly over any tender parts or healing wounds. And it's got, again, the breathability of the cotton panels, so you'll feel nice and cool in case you're feeling a bit hot and flushed with maybe some pain meds afterwards. I think Scanties for any surgeries or any area in your body that is going— needs the flex and the bloating are fantastic. So then you can not feel like tight and uncomfortable in your underwear and can go about focusing on your healing.
