I'm really not sure - I had to have 6 weeks off all exercise just after an eye operation!  I think I would contact your class or sports centre and ask them, they should know how long it will take to recover.

Hi, i would wait until 12 weeks. After my hysterectomy I went back to zumba after 12 weeks & that was just comfortable. Take it slowly & enjoy x
