Hi, 12 years ago I had a tubal ligation after having 5 children. Since the procedure I have had steady weight gain. Before the procedure I have never had a weight issue before. I work out 7 times a week - walking and running every morning for 30 - 45 minutes as well as weight sessions 2 times a week to try to keep the weight off. I eat sensibly and dont eat junk.
Since the procedure also I ahve had very painful periods which cause shooting pains down my legs for the first 24 hours. I have in the past 12 months started to have crying bouts for no reason and also am always tired, not like I used to be at all.
I wonder if perhaps my thyroid has been affected by the tubal ligation ?
do you think I should see a doctor?
I am 37 years old.
