Would it be beneficial to have a Tubal Reversal?” She receives responses other message board participants about the issue of Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome (PTLS), such as “Immediately after TL, I had severe headaches, bleeding with clots, depression, anxiety, skin problems and the list goes on.

Tubal reversal was worth every penny for me,” and “Absolutely! It is called Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome and I had it bad. My tubes were tied for 3 years and I suffered right away. I am six month post-TR and am 95% back to what I consider normal. I say, go for it!” Another member adds, “After I had my tubes tied, AF started to change. My AF before the TL used to be 4 days, mild cramps, and medium flow. I had my TR Nov. 08 and have not had a single episode of flooding and no cramps. I am amazed.
