Hi, please could you post the following question?
I’m due to have a full hysterectomy in the next few months. I’m a single parent to four. I’m not worried about the surgery just the recovery time and how long will I be laid up for? I work too so worried about taking too much time off work. Many thanks 😊

I had 1 in july.it took me just over 4 wks to recover n wen i started feeling better started doing things around the house only light stuff n ended up at the drs cos i wad bleeding.had to rest for the other 2 wks.i was lucky i had a few ppl around me to help wiv kids cleaning shopping.i literally did nuffing for the first 4 wks.u deffo dont wana risk over doing it n the stitching coming undone.xx
My mum had a hysterectomy many years ago but they treat it like u would a csection, so 6 weeks of no exercise no hoovering or lifting a kettle, but my mum needed a month off work, hope that helps and u recover ok xx
I was off work 11 weeks couldn’t drive for 6 weeks. I was physically weak for a good few weeks. I was lucky, my husband did the bulk of the housework. It’s not a minor op and tou need to follow instructions. Good luck. Once you’ve healed you’ll find it’s the best thing thats happened to you. True freedom
Took my mum roughly a fortnight to heal up fully after her hysterectomy. All depends on how well you heal, it’s just being careful not to pull the scar too much
It will depend on how they go in for the hysterectomy – there are so many different ways – I had partial at 29 and they went in midline through my csection scar – so mine took 5 months – best of luck best decision I ever made x
