Tubal Reversal Surgery

A woman with a tubal ligation may later elect to undergo tubal reversal surgery to become pregnant. In vitro fertilization, sometimes called “in vitro” or IVF, may also provide women with a tubal ligation the ability to become pregnant. Choosing between the two, however, requires thorough investigation and conversations with your physician.

Tubal Reversal Surgery Explained

In a tubal reversal procedure, a four to six inch incision is made in the woman’s abdomen for access to the severed tube. Because the surgeon must cut through muscles and tissue prior to reconnecting the tube, the surgery is quite severe and often requires a total of two to three weeks for recovery.
Recently, doctors have begun using a laparoscope for tubal ligation reversals. In this type of procedure, the surgeon enters through the patient’s belly button and uses a scope to reconnect the tubes.

IVF Explained

In vitro fertilization is a procedure where a woman’s eggs are removed from her ovaries, fertilized with sperm and replanted in her uterus in hopes that a pregnancy will result. Typically, the woman’s reproductive organs are stimulated through medications prior to the procedure to improve the chance of conception.
Because this procedure does not require an egg to travel down a woman’s fallopian tube, it is a valid option for woman who wishes to conceive but has previously undergone a tubal ligation.
