After hernia surgery, resuming sexual activity depends on the type of surgery, your personal recovery, and your doctor’s advice.
1. PostSurgery Recovery: Typically, doctors recommend avoiding any activities that might put pressure on the surgery area, including sexual activity, during the early recovery phase. The recovery period usually ranges from a few weeks to a few months, depending on the complexity of the surgery and your personal recovery progress.
2. Pain and Discomfort: If you still experience pain or discomfort after the surgery, it is best to wait until these symptoms have improved before resuming sexual activity.
