Millions of women undergo the permanent sterilization known as tubal ligation or having ones tubes tied. Couples choose tubal ligation because they do not want any more children. The tubal ligation makes life simpler because they do not have to worry about birth control or the fear of an unwanted pregnancy.
Most women are content after they have their tubes tied. They have no pregnancy worries and life goes on. But for some the story is completely different. These women that have issues following a tubal ligation never suspect the ligation to be the thing causing the issue.
Because many women have the tubal ligation procedure while still in the hospital following childbirth their bodies are taxed. Giving birth takes a great toll and not many women are feeling “themselves” following birth. Soon after giving birth the tubes are then ligated. The women and her new baby go home and settle into a new routine.
As the family is settling into their routine Mom is noticing differences that are just not right. For some that have had children before they notice that their milk supply may be way down. With the previous children there was never a milk supply issue.
For others it can be the menstrual periods that are not the same as it was before getting pregnant. The periods seem to come on with a vengeance with spotting and bleeding mid cycle. When they do get their periods they are much heavier and the clotting and cramping can be unbearable. Other suffering with Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome can also have mood swings, hair loss, weight gain.
Many women do not know what is happening to them and go to their physicians. They ask if there is a slight possibility that the tubal ligation could be causing this and they are most often told no. Many blood tests are performed as well as a variety of other medical tests. Everything comes back normal but the women know they are not feeling good.
Once women begin researching on the Internet many often stumble onto information explaining what Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome is. More than one woman has sat at her computer and cried because she had actually found what was causing her so much pain and ruling her life.
Once the Post Tubal Ligation sufferers realize that they are not alone a whole new door is opened for them. There are women fining relief from PTLS and it is through tubal ligation reversal surgery. Many women have had relief almost immediately following the surgery and they are talking about it.
Post tubal ligation side effects are common among those that have had the tubal ligation procedure. Many suffer for months and years’ not realizing what was wrong with them and even with numerous medical tests nothing could be resolved.
