Length of surgery - how long in the OR?

I had a phone appt with the surgery nurse today, and I asked her this very question. She said it would take about 2 hours with another one hour in recovery. (This is for a TAH/BSO)

I had a TVH and was in the OR for about an hour. Then I was in recovery for about 4 hours!

It totally depends on the type of hysterectomy (TAH vs. vaginal), whether you are having any other surgical work done, etc. Also depends on your surgeon.

I am having a TAH with one ovary out, and the surgeon told me about an hour or so for the actual surgery. Probably another hour in recovery.
