HerStory is a spoken story community for women’s health issues, starting with breast cancer and mastectomy. HerStory provides a safe, private place for you to share your valuable personal experiences, problems, and advice with one another. Through these stories you can find inspiration, motivation and information. In HerStory, you record your story with your own voice, or if you prefer, for privacy, we will re-record your story in someone elses voice. These stories are carefully curated for privacy protection and medically accurate and relevant content.
Help us find the stories that are most compelling and helpful for the HerStory community—perhaps yours will be among them!
Listen to others’ stories for tips and encouragement. How do other women cope with breast cancer? What are the pros and cons of treatment options and reconstruction? How will your life change afterwards? All of these questions, and many, many more, are addressed in the stories shared by women on HerStory.
Share your story… or stories! You can submit as many stories as you like. Have a mastectomy bra brand you love? Share it! Tips for reducing scars? Share them! Experience reigniting intimacy in a relationship? Tell others! Sharing your stories doesn’t only help the women who will listen to them. It helps you find your own strength and perseverance through this challenging time.
Connect with others. All are welcome on HerStory, whether they’ve had a mastectomy or not. You can encourage friends or family to join you on HerStory via text, email, or Facebook.
