Our doc told us 5 days. I've read some where only 3 days was good. I don't know but spending a lot of money on a procedure and rush anything is something we weren't willling to do.
Blessings,

I was told 3 days with my DS in 2011. Doc said not any longer because they had found it was not helpful and could possible decrease blood flow.
