Before some of the recent advances in technology came along, “surgery” was a frightening word. It often meant big risks, one or more overnight stays at the hospital, and a long road to recovery.
Today, many of the most common surgeries for women’s health are outpatient. You can usually expect a quick and easy procedure with few risks, pain easily managed by medication and slight scarring. When it comes to recovery time, you can often be back at work in just a few days.
