What is the typical recovery time for vaginal surgery?

Using state-of-the-art minimally invasive techniques, recovery after vaginal surgery with Dr. Payne is very fast. This is especially true because there are no abdominal incisions associated with vaginal surgery.

Depending on the nature of their case, many patients go home either the same day or the morning after surgery. At home, patients may experience mild pain or soreness in their lower pelvic area. They may also experience light vaginal bleeding or spotting for a few weeks after surgery.

Most patients begin feeling like themselves within a few days to two weeks and can walk, eat, and do basic things around the house immediately after surgery. Full recovery usually takes about six to eight weeks.
