Relieving PTLS Symptoms
Prior to the tubal reversal I was suffering from PTLS symptoms. We scheduled the surgery in hopes of relieving my symptoms. I’ve had my first period since surgery and it was already back to normal. Prior to my reversal I would go through 15 pads just in the first two days of my period and bleeding very heavily, and now it was down to about 3-5 pads for about 4 days. My cramps aren’t as bad either. I think it is a great sign that my other symptoms will get better as well. I will feel “Whole” again. Thank you, Dr. Berger, for giving me my health back! I feel like myself again.
Date of tubal reversal surgery: 06/15/09

This is not normal but can be experienced by women as they age or sometimes after a tubal ligation. You should talk to your doctor about possible reasons for what you are experiencing. You should have your thyroid and prolactin hormone levels checked as well.
You should also read a blog article we published about diagnosing problems after tubal ligation.

I am 28 and my husband and I have 5 children… the youngest are 1 year old twin boys. I have my tubes tied and was never told about any tubal ligation side effects. My periods for a year now have been one on month off the other, I have just recently gone with out having my period for 3 months and now I’m on it. I have had such bad stomach craps and lower back pain, it honestly feel’s the begging stages of labor that’s how bad it hurts. Is all of this normal, also I have been having blood clots, almost every time I use the restroom. Is this all normal?
