Can you have your tubes tied too?

Does anyone know if it’s possible to have my tubes tied at the same time as VSG since they will be in there anyway?

My thought would be no because they’ll be dealing with a different part of your anatomy & therefore you would need different surgeons with different specialities. They would likely be able to use some of the same laparoscope sites for the surgery so maybe no additional scarring.

I would ask your surgeon.

My surgeon said they could. Just have to consult with a gyn and they would come in during the surgery to do it. Talk to your doctor.

@LindsayT Did you happen to have that done?

That's up to your surgeon and your insurance. Personally, mine wouldn't do it. But some might.

I had mine done back in 2010, after our last baby. However, during orientation for WLS, the surgeon said they could. It probably all depends on the surgeon and your insurance. Can't hurt to ask the question.
