Wondering how a TAH compares to a c-section (pain)...
In one of the other posts, one of the ladies said that hysterectomy pain is a lot worse than a c-section . I just wondered what everyone thought who had been through both? I haven't been through a c-section, but have plenty of friends who have. Didn't know if they could sympathize with me or if it is different?

Re: Wondering how a TAH compares to a c-section (pain)...
Well, a c-section was worse for me. Not a lot, but at least 30-40 percent worse. I know with a c-section I didn't have a vaginal cuff that had to heal. I don't know if that's part of it. But then I've heard women who had a TAH say that there TAH was worse than c-section for them. I also already had adhesions from a c-section when they did my hyst. That could have made it worse too.

I think my C-sections were so much easier. They did not cut through as much. Everyone is dif. Maybe the C-section was dif. because I had other things to hold my attention. Plus I was in better shape. Good luck.

Re: Wondering how a TAH compares to a c-section (pain)...
My C section was much easier than the hyst. I had bad adhesions from the C section, so they had to do alot of extra work during the hyst. I could have gone back to work 2 weeks after C, but at 8 weeks post hyst, I'm still struggling.
