After choosing to have tubal reversal surgery many women and couples can’t help but wonder what life will bring after the long awaited surgery. For many if it has not been months waiting and saving for this surgery it has been years. Then for many it is getting into good shape so that the surgery will go well and the chances of conceiving after are that much better.

The questions in your mind never seem to stop. How long will it take to get pregnant? Will I have a hard time conceiving? How many tubal reversal babies will I have? And on and on.

One of the first questions asked is about the pain after tubal reversal surgery. Of course, each person tolerates pain differently. For some what seems a little uncomfortable may be a huge pain for others.

In reading the message board at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center the fascinating thing is the LACK of pain many of the patients write about. Because the tubal reversal surgery at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is done as an outpatient procedure the patients are instructed to wear loose fitting clothing. Most leave the Chapel Hill area the day after surgery and do not want anything pushing against the incision.

The biggest complaint seems to be the “groggy” feeling that most of the women experience. This is in most cases due to the anesthesia and does not take long to go away. For others they are asking the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal staff where the local sites are located because they want to be up and moving around!

Another frequently asked question is how long before we can begin to try to conceive a child? The wonderful news to the patients is as soon as you feel up to it. This is the beginning to a dream that many have waited so long for. In reports and statistics at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center one can easily see it does not take long. Many women express the fact about how good it feels to be “whole again”.
