Many complaints fade away eight weeks after a hysterectomy when the major healing usually takes place within the first six weeks. however full recovery can take up to several months, and some internal healing is still taking place at this point. Fatigue and occasional discomfort is normal, but one should refrain from very heavy lifting or vigorous activities. Hormonal changes and also the psychological impact of this surgery can lead to emotional responses such as mood swings or sorrow. Routine follow up with the physician is necessary to check on recovery and address issues such as normalizing sexual relations or dealing with menopausal symptoms in case of removal of ovaries.
