I have a question about tubal legation.?


Question:
Is having a tubal legation ( having your tubes tied ) a dangerous surgery?

Answers:
If you are having it done laproscopically, it's a fairly minor procedure. Laproscopically means they cut a tiny slit and use long "smart" instruments to go in you put the clamps in place. This proceedure can often be done as "same day" surgery; you don't even have to spend the night in a hospital. Recovery time is week or less and the danger is very small.

If you are having a large incision made -- like belly button to pubic hair -- then it becomes much more complex and recovery times are longer. And of course the danger is greater. This type of surgery would involve at least one night in hospital, maybe 2-3, and recovery time would be several weeks. The danger here is greater, but the odds are very much that you will be just fine. Doctors have been doing this proceedure frequently for 50 years and are really good at it.

Other Answers:
no its very common. and its an out patient surgery, so your only in there for about 3 hours, and thats including all the wait time.

ALL surgery has risks that something could go wrong. However, a tubal ligation has a very low incidence of complication. Just be sure to follow your doctors instructions, before and after the surgery. Not necessarily. There have been millions of women who has had this surgery, as long as the doctor is experienced the surgery should be pretty routine. Of course there are always the possibility of complications, but this is with any surgery. Follow all the necessary precautions and the recovery should be fine.


No, it's very straightforward and commonly performed. The pregnancy rate after TL is 1 in 200, so it's not foolproof, but it's not dangerous.
