A member asked:
My mom had a full hysterectomy. how long does it take to recover?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
4 - 6 weeks: Recovery time after a hysterectomy via an abdominal incision takes about 4 - 6 weeks, depending on the age and the general health status of the woman. Recovery time after laparoscopic surgery tends to be shorter.
