How long do women need to recuperate from myoma surgery?

How long a woman needs to recuperate from uterine fibroid surgery depends largely on the type of surgery. There are more types of surgery for uterine fibroids, including minimally invasive laparoscopic or hysteroscopic surgery and open surgery. If the fibroid is small and solitary, the patient can choose laparoscopic or hysteroscopic minimally invasive surgery to remove the fibroid. After the surgery, the patient can basically return to normal after recuperating for about 1 month and can carry out daily activities. If the fibroids are large or multiple, patients usually need to undergo open myomectomy or total hysterectomy, and need to recuperate for a longer period of time after the surgery to fully recover, usually 2-3 months. Therefore, the duration of recuperation after fibroid surgery should not be generalized and should be determined on a case-by-case basis. In addition, women need to follow the doctor’s advice and take regular rest after fibroid surgery according to their own surgical condition, and then go back to their normal working life after recovery.
