A member asked:

What is the typical recovery time for a tubal ligation?

5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes: Recovery after tubal ligation depends upon the method used if you've had general anesthesia and a procedure that entered the abdominal procedure ie a post partum tubal or laparoscopy recovery can be 5 to 7 days. If you've had a vaginal tubal; several days. If you've had hysterscopic placement of the essure, my patient's recovery is immediate.

1-2 weeks: Most women are up and about in 1-3 days after reversal of a tubal ligation. Full recovery takes 6 weeks.
