If you are 41 and had your tubes tied 16 years ago what are the chances your are gonna get pregnant without a tubal reversal?
What are the chances you could concieve at this age even if you did have reversal surgery?
Is it possible to be pregnant for 3 or 4 months and not know it because you have been having normal periods or would the periods stop with pregnancy just like they do younger women?
How rare is it for a women to have a normal (red, heavy) period if she is pregnant for the first 3 or 4 months?
Do the chances of getting pregnant really drop after 40 like they claim?
I am thinking she wants another child but I am also thinking it aint gonna happen without tubal reversal and them it still may not.
Can anyone answer these questions so I can tell her some other opinions. Thanks

well i am only 27, and 3 years ago, i got pregnant. surprised me because just 1 1/2 years before that i had my tubes tied immediately after my twins were born. I also had normal periods, right on time every month for almost 5 whole months...until they suddenly stopped. thats when i went to the dr. and she told me i was 5 months along already. SURPRISE!!!!!! so yes, i know that its possible, but not sure on the percentage of chances, with her age and all. good luck

1. Really really unlikely.
2. Mediocre. Ligation reversal is not 100%, and at 41 fertility is somewhat diminished anyway. She might have to look into IVF if she wants to conceive.
3. Periods should stop with pregnancy regardless of age.
4. Really really rare.
5. Yes.

Has it ever happened? Yes, but it is very rare. Would a reversal work, doubtful. It's been too long since she had it done. After 40 pregnancies....yes. More and more. (Heck, my mom had me at 44 and that was in 1965). Yes, you can have periods and still be pregnant....it is rare.

I would guess after 16 years she would not get pregnant. A reversal may work.

I might say the one means is to have reversal surgical procedure. It is infrequent to have a interval in any respect at the same time pregnant. Yes your frame might give up it the equal as in a more youthful girl. The advisor traces for being pregnant dose no longer difference a lot with age. Yes the possibilities begin to drop with age.
