I'm simply curious about this.

If a woman had her tubes tied but later decided that she would like to have a child, would she still have viable eggs and would doctors be able to get them? I assume not, because you'd probably have to go through the fallopian tubes to retrieve the eggs, but I thought I'd ask.

She still releases eggs, but they don't go anywhere and disintegrate in the fallopian tubes. Her ovaries are still intact, so eggs could be retreived if needed.

A woman's body does not produce eggs. She has all the eggs she's ever going to have already stored away by the time she's born.

So yes, after tying her tubes she's still have viable ova.

Yes you still have eggs! It depends on how you had it done! Ask your Doctor!!
Many years ago my sister had it done after 5 children, well she came in with me when I delivered my oldest, she went back to her Doctor and had one undone! Well she ended up with 8. 1girl and 7 boys!!

I believe the procedure can be reversed, I know it can on a man.Women don't prodice eggs You get them all at puberty but only leave the overies once a month. then when you get your period they get flushed out if they haven't been fertilized
