Your Birth Control Caused Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome?

By: Sandra Wilson

Did you know there that problems reported following having your tubes tied all the way back 50+ years ago? Yes. What we call post tubal ligation syndrome has been reported for decades. You can read story after story online, especially if you go to the http://www.tubal-reversal.net message board, about the suffering women are having post tubal. Why are all these women being ignored? Why is this happening?

So, again, why is nothing being done for the most part. Let's use an article from medicinenet.com as a source of information on why. The article says a Dr. Stephen Corson and other doctors simply think the cause is due to aging and not using birth control pills any more. In fact the article says Dr. Corson counsels women to go off birth control pills for several months before having their tubes tied.

The problem with this type of conclusion is that it does not take into account all the women who don't fit but who still suffer. Maybe the doctors are correct that indeed, for some women, this is the cause - getting old or stopping birth control pills. But what about those for whom neither situation fits? What about the women in their 20s and 30s who had their tubes tied and suffer these problems? Well, maybe going off birth control pills would fit for them except...what about the ones who were pregnant and had their tubes tied right after delivering a baby?

Amber was 22 when she had her tubes tied. She had her baby about 0300 a.m. and was wheeled to her tubal ligation about 0800 the same morning. Looks like neither aging nor birth control pills are factors here for the suffering Amber went through. So her menopause type symptoms, among others, were not due to menopause, not at 22.

Now Skate is another case of a woman who had a tubal ligation surgery performed after the birth of her child in 2002. Although told the symptoms she suffered must be menopause, she simply did not buy it. After all, her mom didn't go through menopause till she was in her 50s and Skate's two older sisters still haven't gone through it yet, either.

Let's take a look at Dannygirl as she is called on the tubal-reversal.net message board. Although she did not have her tubes tied right after the birth of her daughters, she did have it done only a month and a half later. Even if she was on birth control pills, I doubt that was long enough to really cause a major upset with her system going off them and certainly not the awful symptoms she suffers after her tubal. Match that up with the fact that she was only 19 when she had the surgery and you can see age doesn't play a part here either.

These are just a few of the stories I was allowed to share here of the women who have to live with this awful condition. That is, they have to live with it unless they take steps to overcome the effects. These, surprisingly enough, include being put onto birth control. Interesting, considering that they had the surgery to provide birth control. In the article from medicinenet.com mentioned above, a Dr. Grimes even states that "...many women are put back on the pill after the surgery to control these very symptoms." Hmm, aren't there supposed to be problems being on birth control long term?

But living on birth control pills to control the symptoms or just living with the symptoms are not the only choices available to post tubal ligation syndrome sufferers. One other option is having a hysterectomy. You should research this option and find out the side effects of it. The other option is to have things put back the way they were or as best as can be done. This is done via a tubal reversal. Do your research to find the best tubal reversal doctor you can.
