nm

not unless used as a compound modifier, no, such as in -- - SM

-- "This is her 10th post-hysterectomy day." (awkward, I know, but just for an example :-))

Post used in that sense does not stand alone, - sm

therefore either with a hyphen or as 1 word - posthysterectomy. Post can stand alone when used with status -- status post hysterectomy.

I think that 'status' is implied in this sentece, therefore would stand alone - nm
