A member asked:
How long after having a hysterectomy can someone have sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
6 weeks: You should have a post operative exam about 6 weeks after surgery and at that point, your doctor will examine your vagina to be sure the stitches have healed enough to have sex. If the cervix was not removed, you may be able to have sex sooner.
