Question: how long do you have to take off work after a hysterectomy?
Answer: In general women take 4-6 weeks off work to recover from a hysterectomy. The first weeks back at work are often very tiring, much more than a woman expects. If you are able to arrange it, it is a good idea to work a shorter week or shorter days for the first week or two. After that you will find you are back to normal.
