A member asked:
Is it safe have sex 2 weeks after an a abdominal hysterectomy?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
6 weeks: If the entire uterus is taken at the time of hysterectomy, then there is an incision at the top of the vagina that needs to heal for 6 full weeks before having sex. If the cervix was left in place during hysterectomy then it may be possible to have sex 2 weeks after a hysterectomy.

No : Almost all recommendations are to avoid penetration for at least 4 weeks.
