Question: how long out of work after laparoscopic hysterectomy?
Answer: You may be asked to see your GP in 4 to 6 weeks, but follow-up appointments with the hospital are not usually needed unless there are complications. It takes about 6 to 8 weeks to fully recover after having an abdominal hysterectomy. Recovery times are often shorter after a vaginal or laparoscopy hysterectomy.
