Depends: It really depends on what type of hysterectomy you are having. In our practice, women who undergo a laparoscopic hysterectomy go home the same day and are back to work in 4-7 days! don't let your physician tell you your uterus is too large to remove laparoscopically. We have done almost a 1000 laparoscopic hysterectomies as an outpatient, many for large fibroid uterus. www.dradler.com. Good luck!

Recovery time varies: Recover time will vary depending on many factors including age, general health of the patient, infection control, blood sugar control, the exact type of procedure, and post-operative and follow up care.
