Tubal vs bi salp recovery?
This is a bit of a read I apologize.
TLDR: Is recovery from a bi salp similar to that of a tubal?
My surgery isn't scheduled yet, because I got the call saying it'd be 100% covered Friday when my whole gyn team is out of office. But I'm hoping to have it June 10.
I had tubal clamps put in when I was about to turn 20,(just after roe fell) it's was a bit of a fight with my GYN cause I wanted a bi salp but she was so worried I'd regret it, she insisted I get a reversible procedure.
Fast forward two years, a study just got published saying tubals (did not specify wether it was tie and fry or clamps) were not as effective as we thought and could fail in as little as 5-10 years.
Some background for this next bit.
I have hypermobile Ehlers-danlos syndrome, which essentially means all the collagen my body produces is defective, which affects everything, since everything has collagen. I'm also nonbinary, been on T for 2 years. Ive always been terrified of the thought of getting pregnant because it could drastically affect my quality of life and the hEDS is genetic meaning I could pass it on. I am also autistic and TW a survivor of SA. I also have a bad heart and compromised lungs.
I went back to my GYN with the study in hand expecting a fight. I had to have a letter from my psychiatrist ,who I've been seeing since second grade, last time stating it was the best decision for me. But there was no fight this time, so I'm extremely thankful for that, but I'm a little nervous about what post-op will look like for me.
To those who've had both a tubal then a bi salp, is the recovery similar? If it differs, how so? The worst part for the tubal recovery was the gas and constipation.
