Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Depends on surgery: The answer depends on how long ago your surgery was and what surgical approach was used. Typically laparoscopic surgery has a faster recovery than open abdominal surgery. Your surgeon should be able to provide an individual plan for when you can return to your usual activities.
