Tubal Reversal Is The Best Option!
Tubal ligation was intended to be permanent. Circumstances can change and women with tied tubes may want more children. When this happens, they often are told that treatment by in vitro fertilization (IVF) is their only option. In reality, tubal reversal is the best choice.
Comparing Tubal Reversal and IVF
Once the fallopian tubes are repaired by tubal reversal surgery, there is a chance every month for pregnancy to occur naturally. This is why tubal reversal is more successful than IVF.
IVF requires a woman to have weeks of hormone injections to produce many eggs each time pregnancy is attempted. The pregnancy rate with IVF is approximately 25% per treatment cycle. Most women require multiple IVF treatments to become pregnant. At a cost of $12,000 per cycle, this treatment becomes expensive very quickly!
The overall pregnancy rate among Dr. Berger’s tubal reversal patients is 70%, and the cost of a tubal reversal procedure is less than half that of a single IVF treatment cycle. This graph shows that pregnancy rates are higher after tubal reversal performed by Dr. Berger than after IVF. This is true regardless of a woman’s age.

It is wonderful to know that tubal reversal surgery gives women a choice when it comes to their fertility and trying to conceive on their own. Most women desire to try and conceive naturally on their own and with their own eggs. Reversal surgery gives them that chance.
