All You Need To Know About Tubal Ligation And Reversal

Tubal ligation is one of the methods of female sterilization

. In fact, its one of the most successful methods out of the many in practice. This tubal surgery can also be reversed by a procedure called the bilateral tubal reversal surgery. As the name suggests, its a procedure wherein the reverse process of tubal ligation is performed on the woman to restore her fertility. In the process of bilateral tubal ligation the fallopian tubes in a womans womb are cut and sealed in order to prevent the passage of sperms to meet the egg and thus, avoid the fertilization of the egg or in simple terms avoid pregnancy. It can be said that it is one of the most effective methods of permanent contraception. Around 33% of the women in the world have already undergone the bilateral tubal ligation surgery.

Bilateral Tubal reversal

The process in medical terms is known as microsurgical tubal reanastomosis. In this process, the woman is operated upon to untie the fallopian tubes which were sealed earlier in the process of tubal ligation causing her infertility. The decision of whether or not the woman is able to undergo the tubal reversal operation, is looked after by the doctor after a detailed look into the womans past medical records and the present conditions of her body. In case a woman is advised to not undergo this surgery as she doesnt meet the prescribed criteria, then the woman can still have a child by opting for the in vitro fertilization procedure. The tubal reversal surgery per se may not last for more than hours but the post-operative procedure may compel the woman to be in the hospital bed under supervision for 5-7 days.

Risks and its mitigation

Tubal ligation, like any other surgical procedure, if not handled carefully is susceptible to various risks such as infection, excessive bleeding, side-effects, unfastening of sutures and so on. Thus, it is imperative that a qualified and experienced professional performs the surgery. The risks involved can be mitigated largely by proper medication and treatment. The medical history of the woman should be disclosed to the doctor completely as that would aid the doctor in better decision making about the surgery.
