Laparoscopic Surgery in Mahishadal
You’ve taken care of your family. Maybe your children are growing, or maybe you’ve decided that motherhood isn’t part of your path—and that’s completely valid.
Whatever the reason, if you’re exploring permanent birth control for women, tubal ligation might feel like the right next step. It’s safe, effective, and when done by the right hands, surprisingly simple.
At Healing Touch Nursing Home in Mahishadal, we’ve helped hundreds of women feel confident and supported in this decision. Dr. G. S. Tunga, a gynecologist with more than 18 years of experience, leads our team with a calm, no-pressure approach. We walk you through the options, explain everything clearly, and never push. Because this is your body—and your choice.
Types of Tubal Ligation Procedures
Let’s break this down. Not all tubal ligation procedures are identical, and you deserve to know your options.
Laparoscopic Tubal Ligation: This is the most common. Small incisions, minimal scarring, fast recovery. It’s done using a camera and thin instruments to safely close or remove the fallopian tubes.
Mini-Laparotomy: Especially helpful if you’ve just given birth. It’s done through a small incision near the navel and works well during the postpartum window.
Postpartum Tubal Ligation: If you’re planning a delivery with us, this can be done right after childbirth—no need to return for a separate surgery.
Each method has pros and cons. But don’t worry—Dr. Tunga will help you understand which one fits your timing, health, and comfort best.
Female Sterilization
Here’s what usually happens when you decide to go ahead with female sterilization:
First, we’ll meet with you. Not just for consent or paperwork—but to listen, really listen, to what’s motivating your decision. You’ll go over your medical history, ask all the questions, and we’ll make sure you’re 100% comfortable.
On the day of the procedure, you’ll receive anesthesia—local or general, depending on the approach. For laparoscopic tubal ligation, tiny cuts are made near your belly button. Through these, a small camera and surgical tools are used to either seal, clip, or remove parts of your fallopian tubes.
The whole thing usually takes under an hour. Most women rest for a few hours afterward, and then they’re able to go home the same day. You might feel groggy or sore—that’s normal—but we’ll send you off with everything you need to recover smoothly.
Benefits of Tubal Ligation
Let’s be honest—tubal ligation isn’t just about avoiding pregnancy. It’s about freedom. Relief. Knowing that your reproductive journey is exactly where you want it to be.
Here’s what makes it appealing:
It’s over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy.
It’s hormone-free, so you won’t experience mood swings, bloating, or period changes.
There’s no daily pill, monthly shot, or remembering anything.
Recovery is quick. Most of our patients are up and around within a few days.
And maybe best of all—it’s permanent. One decision, one procedure, lasting peace of mind.
Tubal Ligation vs. Other Birth Control Options
You might be wondering: “Why not just stick with an IUD or the pill?”
Totally fair question.
Temporary options like pills, patches, and injections are great—for some people, at some stages of life. But they require ongoing commitment, and let’s be real—life gets busy. Skipping a pill, forgetting an appointment… it happens.
Tubal ligation removes that stress. No more reminders. No more wondering. And unlike hormonal methods, it won’t mess with your body’s natural rhythm.
Still unsure? That’s okay. We’re here to talk through everything, honestly and without pressure. If it turns out tubal ligation isn’t for you, we’ll help you find what is.
Tubal Ligation Recovery and Aftercare
You’ve got a life to get back to. We get that.
That’s why we aim to make recovery as smooth and quick as possible.
Here’s what most women experience:
Some mild cramping or shoulder discomfort (from the gas used in laparoscopy), which fades in a day or two.
You’ll likely be walking within hours and back to daily tasks in 2–3 days.
We recommend avoiding heavy lifting or intense activity for a week—just to give your body a little grace.
You’ll have a follow-up visit so we can make sure everything’s healing well.
And if you ever feel unsure or need reassurance, you won’t have to chase us down. We’re just a phone call away.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is tubal ligation painful?
Not during the surgery—it’s done under anesthesia. You might feel some soreness afterward, but it’s usually mild and short-lived.
Can I get pregnant after tubal ligation?
It’s rare, but technically possible. The procedure is one of the most effective forms of permanent birth control for women.
Does tubal ligation affect periods?
No. Your hormones stay the same, so your cycle should continue as usual.
Is tubal ligation permanent?
Yes, that’s the idea. Reversals are sometimes possible but can be complex and aren’t always successful. It’s best to be certain before moving forward.
Can tubal ligation be reversed?
Surgically, yes—but it’s not guaranteed to work. We always encourage careful thought and thorough discussion before choosing this path.
