Wud it be difficult to become pregnant after tubal ligation?

Question

I had a tubal ligation where they burned and cut my tubes, after 12 years I met remarried, and my husband has no kids, Would I be able to reverse my operation and have his child if we are willing to go thru this?

Answer 1

I dont know if there is anything that can be done if they have been burned. The success of this procedure does depend on whether your tubes were cauterized; reversal may be unfeasible as the lining of the fallopian tubes may have been damaged if cauterized.Bipolar Cauterization of the Tubes

This procedure is usually done through the laparoscope as are the clips and bands. The technique involves holding the fallopian tube between the electrical conducting paddles of a bipolar forceps and turning on the current until enough heat is generated in the tissue (tube) so that all the water evaporates and no more current flows from one paddle through the desiccated tube and into the other paddle.

Unfortunately, the heat generated in this process has been shown to spread along the tube for a distance of up to almost one inch (two centimeters) in either direction. In addition, most gynecologists place the paddles two or three times in adjacent portions of the isthmic segment. The damage caused by this type of ligation may be so extensive so that only one or two centimeters of tube are available for repair on either side of the previous cauterization.

This type of tubal ligation can be reversed in most cases only if the tube was cauterized only in one spot or if the paddles were applied 2-3 times in very close or adjoining portions of the tube. Oftentimes a patient's tubes are only 2-3 centimeters in final length after this type of reversal. This leads to lower pregnancy rates after reversal. For that reason, many patients decide to enter into the "in vitro" fertilization program instead. When a patient is treated with "in vitro" fertilization, the clinic actually performs all the functions of the fallopian tube; that is, collection of the egg, fertilization of the egg, culture of the fertilized egg and pre-embryos, and finally transfer into the womb.


Monopolar Cauterization of the Tubes

This type of tubal interruption is also done through the laparoscope. It involves burning one or more adjoining segments of the fallopian tube and usually interrupting them also by cutting them. The heat generated can damage adjoining segments to the tube and lead to very short tubes for anastomosis. Repair can be attempted if the surgery notes indicate that a relatively conservative procedure was performed.

Answer 2

Very unlikely without a reversal, and those are tricky as well. You would need to be thoroughly examined by a doctor. It may be more feasible to go the IVF route, it may be cheaper in the long run, since usually NONE of this would be covered by insurance. I had a tubal ligation done 3 days ago, so my doctor went over all this with me pretty thoroughly before surgery.

Answer 3

It can often be reversed. But invitro fertilization may be a better option. That way you would not have to undergo such extreme reconstruction.

If you are in the Toronto area I do know of a doc there that does tubal reversals. His name is Dr. Spivak. gynecologist.

Infertility can be caused by a huge number of factors: hormone imbalance, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Endometriosis, Anovulatory Cycles, physical blockage, inadequate hormone production, short luteal phase, lack of lutenizing hormone, high levels or prolactin, and many others.

Poor nutrition often plays a major role, as does exposure to toxins. Age plays less of a role before menopause than was originally thought. While there are many wonderful naturally minded fertility specialists out there, in many cases it is not possible for them to test for and address any of these possible underlying issues.

Answer 5

VERY unlikely. They tell you when you have the operation that it is a permanent procedure. You're supposed to think through all possible options before you go through with it. The chances of a reversal working are slim to none, sorry.

Answer 6

Your tangled up classes could be via having had your tubes tied. I had a similar indications. I had my tubes untied and nevertheless have completely general classes each and every 28 days all the way down to the hour. inspect my factors.

Answer 7

It may be possible, a doctor would have to examine you to see. You should also check and see if your insurance will cover the surgery since it's elective surgery and usually costs about $10,000 - $15,000.

Answer 8

yes nearly impossible unless it was reversed.
