Depends: This is a minimally invasive surgery so recovery is typically shorter. Your doctor knows you best, and so their advice/recommendation holds the most water. I can tell you i've had patients go back to work as soon as 1 week and as late as 6 weeks after this type of hysterectomy. Depends on the person, how they heal, any complications they have, etc. Good luck!

Da Vinci: You could be back to work on as little as two weeks. In fact, it's not unheard of for people to go back in one week, but that's really pushing it.
