How long is recovery after hysterectomy for adenomyosis?

Recovery after hysterectomy for adenomyosis tends to improve week by week, but it’s normal for it to feel like a process rather than an overnight change. After minimally invasive surgery, many patients can return to light activities within about 1–2 weeks and gradually resume more typical routines around 4–6 weeks, depending on the complexity of surgery and the physical demands of work and home life.

Even when you’re feeling better on the outside, internal healing can take longer, and certain activities may need more time before they feel comfortable. If pain persists with movement, bowel movements, or intimacy, that can be a sign you’d benefit from targeted pelvic rehabilitation as part of your recovery plan. Our team can help you understand what to expect based on your specific surgery and goals, and you’re welcome to reach out to schedule a consultation.
