I had laproscopic assisted vaginal hysterectomy.I kept one ovary & cervix.Prior to surgury my doc thought they might have to take both ovaries but fortunately one was saveable. I had one that was very enlarged with multiple cysts.She also warned that she might have to do an abdominal cut.Which didn't happen either so it took two hours.It probally depends on what goes on& what method they use.I will tell you I'm on day 5 and I haven't had any extreme pain.Pain meds make me sick so I was concerned I take half of the dose I was prescribed with food and I can't complain it has been far less painful than I feared.

Had LSH
My surgery took almost 4 hrs., but my uterus was stuck to my abdominal wall and a urologist had to place a stent in one of my ureters for a marker so they didn't accidentally cut it. Surgeon wasn't expecting any of this. He originally said 2-2.5 hrs.

I had an abdominal hyst. My doc expected 2 hours but it actually took closer to 3 since he had to do much more digging around than he expected and initially feared cancer so he wanted to make sure there were clean margins - pathology clean.

I had a TAH and was told it would be up to 3-4 hours. Fortunately she was able to make quick work of things - there wasn't as much damage and repair work needed - and my surgery last 2 hours!

Definitely depends on the type of procedure you're having. I had a TAH and it lasted 90 minutes or so. Good luck!

I had a TVH (kept ovaries) & I was in there less than 1 hr... My Dr. had told me regardless of type of surgery, it could be up to 90 minutes. But I didn't have anything else done during my hyst.
