Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive technique used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in gynecology. Whether it’s done for endometriosis, fibroids, or fertility-related conditions, recovery plays a crucial role in healing and future chances of conception. One common question from patients at Nucleus IVF Wakad Pune is: “How should I sleep after laparoscopic surgery?”
At the same time, another topic that frequently concerns hopeful mothers is endometrial polyps and whether they can get pregnant with this condition. Let’s explore both.
How to Sleep After Laparoscopic Surgery?
Post-laparoscopy, getting proper rest is essential, but due to abdominal discomfort and bloating, finding a comfortable sleep position can be tricky.
Recommended Sleep Positions:
1. On Your Back (Most Recommended)
Keeps pressure off the incisions
Promotes better digestion
Reduces strain on muscles
2. Slightly Elevated Upper Body
Use two pillows or a recliner chair
Helps reduce bloating and discomfort caused by gas
Promotes better breathing
3. Side Sleeping (With Caution)
Sleep on your non-operative side
Use a pillow between knees to support the spine
Positions to Avoid:
Sleeping on your stomach (puts pressure on incisions)
Tossing or turning frequently
Tips for Comfortable Sleep:
Wear loose clothing
Avoid eating large meals 2–3 hours before bedtime
Use a heating pad (if approved by doctor)
Keep your bedroom calm, dark, and cool
🛌 Adequate sleep speeds up healing, improves hormonal balance, and prepares your body for fertility treatment.
