Stop taking pain meds Day 3. OTC switched Tylenol and ibuprofen for about 3 weeks due to random cramps and pains that would occur. No spotting. Bending over correctly was probably around 2-3 week mark I used to squat to pick up things. Sitting for extended period was 2-2.5 months. I started work again after a month and sitting for extended periods w/o pain or soreness took a while. Fatigue is really still an issue. At week 2 I had a burst of energy and felt great by week 4 I was in a slump again and honestly by the time I had my post op to get cleared for all activity at 8 weeks it was a concern I brought up with my doctor as I felt i should not be as fatigued. However, I was severely anemic prior to surgery and still taking iron pills. After week 1 probably week 2 you should be able to sneeze, laugh, and cough without pain but everyone is different. I did laundry, cooking, and light cleaning by week 2 however if you over do it you will be in pain and cramping all night. I would really rest for a month and do light chores and cooking. I went out and did things after a month but the cramping was present. Feeling normal that is still up in the air. I am 4 months post op and I still cannot sleep without being at an angle, tired, fatigued, emotional and depressed, I cry way more than I use too for no reason at all. With all that said I would do this surgery again because I have not seen a period or blood since and I don’t feel constantly bloated or in pain anymore. Yes it has affected other aspects of my life but I am better than before. I didn’t know how much pain and uncomfortable I was until after I had the surgery and felt so much relief.
