Thinking About Tubal Ligation Reversal

Just thought I'd throw my 2 cents in and let you know that I've know several women who haved this done, and all have been happy with their decision. To find a doctor in your area, you can contact the Couple to Couple League. They have a website at: http://www.ccli.org/
NOTE: I am NOT endorsing Couple to Couple League, and will point out their extreme bias against ALL forms of contraception!!!! They will help you find a great doctor for any reversal of sterilization though!

Hey! I'm going to have mine reversed also and I did a lot of internet researching and I found this doc in St. Louis that has this web site that tells you the percent of succesful cases he's had and the web site has pictures and video and descriptions of everything that involves reversals. It's wonderful and as soon as we have the money, we're both going to go since we both need it. =( I'll give you the link and you can check it out. Maybe we can carpool!! LOL!!

Let me know what you think! I need to call them and see what type of payment they take. Someone actually told me that some docs even will finance! I guess we'll see!

I am going to the jackson clinic in TN. OUTPATIENT ONLY... I just posted. Do alot research..

Hi M.,

I'm M. from Owasso, OK. I'm now 17 weeks pregnant with a post-reversal baby. Have faith that it CAN happen! I actually went the cheaper route and had my reversal done in Mexico. It was a good experience and was only $2700. Since I live in Oklahoma, I drove down. You just need to make sure that you pick a reputable clinic and a doctor with lots of experience and recommendations.

I arrived in the evening and was in surgery by the next morning. The doctors spoke English and were reassuring. I had minimal pain, and about a 4" incision along a previous low c-section scar. I felt well enough to make the drive back to Oklahoma after about 24 hours. (Husband drove back, not me!) I guess I was at 100% after about two weeks. They give you pain pills and antibiotics and instruct you to not try to get pregnant for a couple of months to let yourself heal. I was left with about 3 cm of tube on each side and told my chances were about 50%. Well, I'm expecting a little girl!

The clinic I used was in Rio Bravo, just south of the Texas border. Their website is www.riobravoreversal.com and I would be happy to answer any other questions you have about my reversal experience.

Good luck!

M.,

If you just had them tied; then within 5 years they will become untied by theirslef. If you had them cut, burned, and tied then good luck. My husband is 53 and had 2 vesectames (mispelled) and we have a beautiful 5 1/2 month old little girl. He did this without any reversal. He use to see Dr. Good in Texas I believe. He has 4 grown boys ranging in age from 31 to 24. I am personally 28. Please keep me posted and if you have any questions don't hei\sitate to e-mail me at ____@____.com
