Pelvic Laparoscopy: Convalescence & Recovery
The gas pumped into the abdomen may cause abdominal discomfort for 1 or 2 days after the procedure.
Occasionally, neck and shoulder pain may be noted for several days after a laparoscopy as the carbon dioxide gas escapes through the skin. However, you should be back to normal activities in less than 2 days.
Sexual activities may resume as soon as bleeding, if any, has stopped. Call your doctor if you have severe abdominal pain, persistent fever, or vaginal bleeding.
