Tubal ligation is a permanent contraceptive surgery that blocks or seals the fallopian tubes, preventing eggs from reaching the uterus for fertilization. Women choose this procedure when they're certain they don't want future pregnancies, though reversal is possible if circumstances change.
Thailand offers tubal ligation at accredited hospitals with experienced gynecological surgeons at costs 50-70% lower than Western countries. The procedure can be scheduled within days, requires minimal time off work, and patients can recover in comfortable hotel accommodations near the hospital.
This guide covers costs at partner hospitals in Thailand, surgical techniques, trip planning logistics, and what to expect during your stay.
Please note that the prices provided are estimations and may vary based on various factors. Additionally, these prices do not include flights or accommodation.
All prices are in USD, unless otherwise indicated.
1. No referral required, same-week scheduling. Book a consultation directly with a gynecological surgeon without GP referral. Most hospitals can schedule your consultation within 2-3 days and perform the procedure within the same week if you're medically cleared.
2. Experienced OB-GYN surgeons at JCI-accredited hospitals. Partner hospitals like Bumrungrad International Hospital and Praram 9 Hospital employ board-certified gynecologists trained internationally. Many have performed thousands of tubal ligations using minimally invasive techniques.
3. Affordable costs without insurance restrictions. Pay $1,500-$3,000 for the complete procedure including surgeon fees, hospital stay, anesthesia, and follow-up appointments. No insurance pre-authorization needed, no coverage denials for voluntary sterilization.
4. Discreet, judgment-free care. Thailand's private hospitals serve international patients seeking reproductive healthcare without the administrative hurdles or social pressure sometimes encountered in home countries. Childfree women and younger patients receive the same respectful treatment as anyone else.
Tubal ligation blocks or seals the fallopian tubes so eggs released from the ovaries cannot meet sperm. The procedure doesn't affect your menstrual cycle, hormone levels, or sexual function. You'll continue having periods and reaching menopause at the same age you would have otherwise.
The surgery is considered permanent birth control. While tubal ligation reversal exists, success rates vary depending on which technique was used and how much of the tube was removed. If you think you might want biological children in the future, consider long-acting reversible contraception like IUDs instead.
Tubal ligation is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy. Fewer than 1 in 100 women become pregnant in the first year after the procedure, and the failure rate remains low over time.
Tubal ligation costs in Thailand range from $1,500 to $3,000 depending on the hospital, surgical technique, and whether it's performed as a standalone procedure or immediately following childbirth.
Price Range: 70,000-100,000 THB (~$2,000-$2,850 USD)

Surgical technique: Laparoscopic procedures cost slightly more than minilaparotomy due to specialized equipment, but recovery is faster.
Timing: Postpartum tubal ligation (performed 1-2 days after vaginal delivery or during cesarean section) costs less than interval tubal ligation (performed when you're not pregnant).
Hospital tier: Premium hospitals like Bumrungrad charge more but offer English-speaking staff, international patient coordinators, and hotel-like amenities.
All quoted prices include surgeon fees, anesthesiologist fees, hospital room (usually 1 night), medications, and one follow-up appointment within 7-10 days.
Pricing Disclaimer: These are 2025 estimates based on partner hospital price lists. Contact Konkai Health for current quotes from multiple facilities.
Thailand's private hospitals primarily use laparoscopy for tubal ligation, though minilaparotomy and postpartum techniques are also available.
The surgeon makes one or two small incisions (5-10mm) near the belly button and inserts a laparoscope (thin camera). Specialized instruments seal the fallopian tubes using clips, rings, or cauterization (burning).
Pros: Minimal scarring, faster recovery (3-5 days), same-day discharge possible, lower infection risk.
Cons: Requires general anesthesia, slightly higher cost than minilaparotomy.
Most commonly used for interval tubal ligation when the woman is not pregnant or postpartum.
A small incision (2-3 inches) is made in the lower abdomen. The surgeon pulls each fallopian tube through the incision, removes a small section, and ties off the ends.
Pros: Direct visualization of tubes, can be done with local anesthesia plus sedation, slightly lower cost.
Cons: Larger scar, longer recovery (5-7 days), higher infection risk than laparoscopy.
Less common in Thailand's private hospitals but available if you prefer to avoid general anesthesia.
Performed 1-2 days after vaginal delivery or during cesarean section while you're already in the hospital. The uterus is still enlarged, bringing the fallopian tubes closer to the abdominal surface for easier access.
Pros: Convenient timing (one hospital stay covers delivery and sterilization), lower total cost, tubes are easier to access.
Cons: Must be planned in advance, decision made during emotionally intense time, potential regret if decided hastily.
Most Thailand hospitals require counseling and signed consent at least 2-4 weeks before your due date if you want postpartum tubal ligation.
