How Is A Tubal Ligation Procedure Performed?

In March of 2015 I had an emergency C-section with my third child. In April of 2016 my daughter passed. During the course of my pregnancy I had signed the paperwork for a tubal. I assumed I would have three healthy children and that was all I needed. However able to stay after my daughter s passing I was super upset and would love to have another chance at having my third child. My question to you is how is this procedure commonly done and exactly where are the clips placed on my reproductive system?

Hello,

Tubal ligation, often referred to as "having your tubes tied," is a surgical procedure in which a woman's fallopian tubes are blocked, tied, or cut. Tubal implants, such as Essure, are small metal springs that are placed in each fallopian tube in a non-surgical procedure (no cutting is involved).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
