Recovery After a Tubal Reversal. Recovery time depends on the surgical method used to perform the tubal reversal. Tubal reversal is major abdominal surgery that is more difficult and takes longer to perform than the original tube-tying operation. Some women may need to stay in the hospital for one to three days.oday, however, tubal reversal surgery is most often done using microsurgical techniques. An overnight hospital stay may not be needed. Women who have the microsurgical method usually go home the same day, typically within two to four hours after the surgery is complete.
In general, most couples will conceive within the first 6 months after a tubal reversal procedure. If you are not pregnant following 6 months of trying, we recommend that you undergo a hysterosalpingogram (HSG) exam, otherwise known as the âdye testâ, to determine the condition of the tubes.
