This is a question every patient thinks about but is embarrassed to ask: when can I return to a normal sex life after the operation? After open surgery, we advise patients to resume sexual activity a month after the operation. After laparoscopy, we advise that they can resume one to two weeks after the operation. But the difference isn't only in timing. Studies have shown that pain after open surgery reaches 12.5%, while after laparoscopy the rate falls to 5.9%, and these figures are repeated in more than one study. That tells us one thing: laparoscopic hernia repair is better for sexual life than open repair. But in the end, the return to sexual activity varies from patient to patient, and your treating doctor should help you decide the right time.
