A member asked:
How long should it take for external stitches to dissolve after robotic hysterectomy? i still have a few 24 days later.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Depends upon the type of dissolving suture as there are many different types. 24 days is not unreasonable and I assume some of the sutures have fallen out already. They will continue to do so with time.

I had a partial hysterectomy +- 3 years ago. 3-5cm of my uterus removed due to non stop bleeding. Therefore I can no longer have babies. With today's technology. Is this able to be repaired? Stitched up and sealed to be able to have kids again?
