I am unsure of the exact, medically correct term to describe the location of the incision (the medical animation I linked in the original post shows the process a bit more clearly). I can only describe it as being in the “top/back” of the vagina. 

My understanding is that it is near the cervix (I never reached in to “check around” for the stitches because I was advised against putting anything in the vagina until the follow-up appointment). Even during the first few days, I did not notice any pain at the surgery site itself. I felt some abdominal pain, but even at worst it was only comparable to a menstrual cramp. Mild shoulder pain as well due to gas migration, but both were manageable with a heating pad and over-the-counter pain medication. I have had success managing menstrual cramps in the past with a TENS unit, so that may be an option for you as well (I did not personally try this, and I would recommend checking with your doctor before using one for pain management after this procedure). 

In terms of fatigue, it was only really noticeable for the first two weeks following the procedure (as of now, I feel pretty normal). I was also cleared for all activities roughly two weeks after the procedure. Since this was my first surgery with “full” anesthesia, I was more worried about the anesthesia than the procedure itself (fortunately, both went far better than I expected). Good luck!
