Tubal ligation is a permanent method of female sterilization, which involves the tying up of the fallopian tubes, which obstructs the subsequent travel of the ovum from the ovaries to the uterus. Annually, more than half a million women in the United States undergo tubal ligation, with the intent of limiting their family size.
Tubal ligation reversal is considered by many women (about six percent) with the intent to relive their experience of pregnancy and child birth. Tubal ligation reversal is referred to as ‘Tubal Re-anastamosis’. Tubal ligation reversal procedures are available abroad at less than half the cost. International destinations where a tubal ligation reversal is conducted are Mexico, Costa Rica, India, Jordan, and Turkey.
In addition to the renewed desire to mother a baby, many women consider tubal ligation reversal to overcome the undesirable effects of Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome. The symptoms may include menstrual irregularities, loss of libido, vaginal dryness and early onset of menopausal symptoms (hot flushes, mood swings, irritability, palpitation, and anxiety).
However not all women with tubal ligation, can consider a reversal. Reversal depends upon certain factors like age, the procedure used for the tubal ligation, the exact position of the ligation, and fallopian tube length available after the procedure. The medical team would require examining other health considerations before suggesting the viability of a tubal ligation reversal.
Clinical evidence suggests that the success rate for tubal ligation reversal is about 20% to 80%. The most important consideration is the age of the women, with women below forty years of age showing pregnancy success rate of as high as 80%. Furthermore, the technique used for re-canalization of the fallopian tubes also plays a crucial role. Conventional methods of reversal have shown a success rate of 70% while, the use of microsurgery has shown slightly higher success rates of up to 90% (i.e. 90% of women get pregnant within a year of the reversal surgery).
