Post Operative Care
You may need to wear a panty shield for approximately two weeks whilst your sutures dissolve, during this time you should bathe your vagina with warm salt water to prevent infection and your surgeon may also prescribe some antibiotics. After your surgery you may feel sensitive and tender and you may feel some discomfort when sitting.
Avoid strenuous activity or sexual intercourse – this may take up to three weeks post surgery. Your surgeon will advise you accordingly, when you can resume normal activities. Most women return to work after a week or two.
