I got my tubes tied after my fourth child (I was 25). I have Post-Tubal Ligation Syndrome. It's not an easy thing to treat. After several surgeries and medications, my only alternative is a Tubal Reversal Surgery which my insurance does not cover and we have to save to pay for. Not all doctors believe that PTLS is a real issue either which makes treatment for it extremely difficult.
From talking to others, this only occurs in a small amount of women. It doesn't happen to everyone, but there is a chance.
There's a list of 34 symptoms of PTLS, I have 28. http://members.tripod.com/~sterilization_rights/Symtoms_PTS.html
