It takes about 2-3 hours depending on your size and how your original tubal was done. Filshie clips and rings are easiest to reverse. It also depends on your size. If you have a normal BMI then it will be quicker and your incision will be smaller. On average the incision is about 3 1/2 inches, a bikini cut, and if you have already had a c section then they will use your old scar. If you have it done microsurgically, then you will have a faster recovery. It takes about 10 days to feel like your old self again. You will be able to walk around the next day and some women say they are out and about just hours after the surgery, although I didn 't find that to be my experience. All in all, it was much easier than I expected and cured a whole host of problems that I had been experiencing.
