I was wondering if weight loss or the inability to gain weight after a tubal ligation is something that has been brought up before or if it is a possible side effect. I read several articles that described weight gain. I had a tubal ligation in sept. of '04 I was of a healthy weight , but since then my weight began dropping drasticly, within 3 months I lost 38lbs. At first I was really happy but thought nothing of it. Since then I am down to 128lbs. and it doesn't seem to matter what I eat I can not get over 130lbs. I am sure for some people that would be great, but for me it is quite alarming. I have to eat large amounts just to sustain 128.
Thank you for your time,

I've been experiencing the same thing. However, I was overweight to begin with, so in my case it's a good thing so far. I've never been able to lose weight, but since my tubal, it's been falling off. I've lost 25 pounds in the last 3 months. Part of it is my lack of appetite now. I also can't seem to get a good night's sleep since my tubal.

This is exactly what happens to me. No matter how much I eat I cannot gain even two pounds. Some people would like that, but not me. I am feeling weak.

Same thing here I got my done....July 2007 and by end of May 2008 i went from 215 to 155....which is good for me.....but since this side effect has never been noticed amongst a large mass of women who have had this procedure done it also makes me a bit worried!

Im 35 and I just had my tubal ligation done a week ago. I have noticed the lack sleep also. But what I've noticed more is the weight I have loss. In a week I had lost 10 pounds.. I don't have the appetite to eat much at all. I don't know where this is coming from but Im glad im not the only one going thru this.

This makes me extremely sad to hear this because I have gained all of my pregnancy weight and some. I continue work out and nothing is happening, no change at all. Now I have become extremely depressed cause this is not me and I am not at all happy with myself. I only eat so that I won't get hunger headaches.

Hello friends, I just had a TL 5 days ago, of course is too ealry for me to notice any weight loss or gain, but 1 thing I noticed is that I'm in constant pain, always crying, very nauseated & dizzie. Can some-1 tell me if this is a normal side effect of a TL considering is been 5 days since the surgery, by the way let me not forget to mention that I'm constantly itching all over my body. At first I though it could be a reaction from the anesthesia (general anesthesia), but not sure. Can some-1 please tell me if they went thru something like this? Thanks you. 8-|[enc]
