I have had this done a long time ago. I had to stay in hospital over night.
Today it might be different. Things have changed a lot since then, with up to date technology. I was off from work for one week. All was well with me.
Hope all goes well x

I was sterilized way back in 1986, I had my fallopian tubes clipped, I went in in the morning and was home by tea time, the only thing I had following the operation, was mild to moderate period pains for a few days, easily put right with normal paracetomol

They did put those lovely think, white, sexy stockings on my before I went to theatre which I kept on for a couple of days, but it would be very rare for you to get a blood clot or DVT from this type of surgery as you're up and around so quickly afterwards, it's only people who have to remain in bed for sometime that are at added risk of that

You'll be absolutely fine hun, it's a quick and very simple operation that's carried out millions of times a year, recovery is rapid, I was back to life as normal the following day, having 2 young children to look after, I just felt a little sore where the instruments went in, but I was able to carry on life as normal

My mum was sterilised after giving birth to my brother. She said it was quick, in and out. You're a little tender afterwards, naturally, but nothing major. It hasn't affected her in the long term, apart from not being able to have any more children.

Nothing to worry about easiest procedure/operation I have ever had in and out on the same day, as others have said just a bit of tummy pain afterwards. It's such a straight forward thing to have done so don't worry.
