"Should I Remove My Falloian Tubes?" Fertility, Fear & The Decision Nobody Wants To Make

from Life after cancer? · host Naomi Jolly

This week’s episode wasn’t planned… but it’s probably one of the most honest ones I’ve recorded.I’m talking about a decision that’s been quietly sitting in the background for a while, whether to have my fallopian tubes removed.After cancer, I thought the hard part was over. But what no one really prepares you for is the constant stream of decisions that come after, especially when they involve risk, fertility, hormones, and your future.In this episode, I share:What it’s actually like living with a BRCA gene mutationWhy ovarian cancer risk has suddenly started playing on my mindHow unpredictable hormones and periods can mess with your head post-treatmentThe option of removing fallopian tubes (and why it’s not as simple as it sounds)Fertility after cancer, IVF, and the emotional weight of “what if”And the reality of making decisions when there’s no clear right answerThis isn’t a medical episode. It’s a real one. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the decisions that come after cancer or struggled with fertility, uncertainty, or trusting your body again, this one’s for you.Follow me at @lifeaftercancer_wtf
