I'm not sure when they dissolved. I had 10 or so stitches. When I went to my 6 week PP appt, she said all but one had dissolved. She just cut it out since the area was totally healed and said I was good to resume activity.
Mine dissolved on their own. I'm not sure when, but at my four week appointment she told me everything had healed nicely, so sometime before then.
Sept 2013 started TTC#2 (never got PP period so hoping for the first egg to drop)
Jan 2014 - diagnosed POF (Premature Ovarian Failure) and told pregnancy not possible without egg donor because my ovaries would never function again with my hormone levels (FSH 136, LH 98.6, AMH <.03, estradiol 0, HCG 7) - using acupuncture, chiropractic care and TCM herbs / supplements
March 11, 2014 ovulated despite every doctors prognosis!!!
Oct 2014 hormones (FSH 48, Estradiol 89, HCG 1) not good, but heckuva lot better!
Nov. 16, 2015 FET of single adopted 5AA embryo - BFN
Most of mine fell out within 3-4 weeks. But, when I went in for my 6 week check up my OB did an internal and 2 of my stitches hadn't fell out due to the skin around it swelling up over the top of them. I am 8 weeks pp now and they finally both came out.
I'm 4 weeks PP and most of mine have dissolved. I still have a few visible. And 2 have had the visible part fall off, but the internal part is still stiff and pointy causing discomfort. (I had at least 12 stitches)
With my first, I still had undissolved stitches at 8wks PP.

My stitches also dissolved. The OB said it took a week or two to dissolve.
