Obviously depends on how things go...how the procedure is performed...any or no complications...could be 2 days only, providing no complications...they get you in and out today! There are to many variables to say for certain...check with your doctor...
Good luck!0 -

but I had a total abdominal hysterectomy in 2006 and stayed 3 nights- honestly I was ready to leave the day before, but they didn't discharge me until the third morning.0 -

My dr kept me in the hospital for 4 days. I had my hysterectomy 8 years ago though, and things have changed drastically since then. Now days we do drive through surgeries.0 -

BUT, I had a vaginal hysterectomy (1993). BUT, they don't like to keep people in longer than absolutely necessary because of the chance of picking up infections. Mastectomy used to be days too but in Dec. was only about 24 hours.0 -

I would say 3-4 days.I was in for a week but some complications AND it was 16 years ago. They throw you out the door sooner today.Insurance is the reason.

and then day by day IF the Dr feels the need they will approve day by day! (extend as needed)
I am having complete hysterectomy and it can not be done vaginally due to very enlarged from side effects of Tamoxifen. That is why have surgery along with bleeding. When this is all over I go back on Tamoxifen..I have been off for 2 mths hoping it would get better. (bleeding-on and off heavy and then very slight)
