Atleast 3 months. Preferably 6 months to 1 year. But important point is to not lift heavy weight. Usually not mor than 3 kgs. If you still plan to do gym go for more cardio, increase frequency and not weight. Do it under guidance only. But chances of recurrance will always be there.

Ideally gym should be avoided. But you may start after 6 months of surgery. Avoid vigrous weight lifting exercises.
