How does a tubal ligation work?
The tubal ligation is fully functional and working immediately after the operation is finished. The female patient is recommended to rest for 2 or 3 days and not make any hard activities during one week. When the patient feels comfortable, the sexual activity can start again. This usually occurs after about one week following the operation. Those who have their surgery through the vagina are recommended not to put anything into the vagina for two weeks, this is to prevent infection.
