When is it safe to masterbate after hysterectomy?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Depends.: Nothing should be placed in the vagina for 6 weeks after a hysterectomy. Orgasm is ok after a hysterectomy if achieved with external stimulation only. I recommend waiting to do any activities for at least 2 weeks.

Depends: Penetration should be avoided for at least 4 weeks and possibly up to 8 weeks depending on the route of hysterectomy. Non-penetrating masturbation should be safe at any time after a hysterectomy.
