Yes Diastasis Recti is reversible and curable and most cases of Diastasis Recti do go away on their own within 6 weeks.

If not then you can opt for Diastasis Recti surgery or do exercises to help the Diastasis Recti condition go away.

Most people who have Diastasis Recti will see the Diastasis Recti cured on it's own within 6 weeks Postpartum.

However for other people it may take as long as 3 to 6 months for the Diastasis Recti to fully heal and cure on it's own.

Also sometimes Diastasis Recti Abdominis may persists well after the woman gives birth.

If the Diastasis Recti has not gone away within a year then you may need to have Diastasis Recti surgery to get rid of the Diastasis Recti.

However if you opt to have surgery for the Diastasis Recti just note that the Diastasis Recti surgery is costly.

The average cost of Diastasis Recti surgery is around $11,000.00 to $15,000.00

This cost for the Diastasis Recti surgery is usually not covered using most health insurance as it's usually considered a cosmetic surgery by most health insurance companies.

So you would likely need to pay for the Diastasis Recti surgery out of pocket.
