Thank you for this forum. I’ll be 42 in February 2011 and am considering a reversal upon my marriage to you a younger man who has NO children and desires them. . .we both do, actually. I have three previous full-term pregnancies but all were delivered via c-section. The first one was a “failure to progress” situation. . .(i was very young and i think my 1st was really just too big) and the subsequent deliveries were elective because I knew what to expect and went with that option.

Considering my so-called “advanced maternal age”, three previous c-sections and the fact that I’m not even certain what method of sterilization I received (done after the c-section delivery of my last who is 11 y.o. now). . .am I being foolish in thinking I may be able to pull off a successful reversal and healthy pregnancy?

Adriana
Pregnancy is always possible; however, since your tubes are tied pregnancy is not likely. You can have a reversal and become pregnant but since you have had the ablation pregnancy may not happen and if it does any pregnancy would be higher risk. We do not recommend tubal reversal if you are not having regular periods after your endometrial ablation.

Yes, tubes that have been burned or coagulated can also be repaired. The success rates are shown in the tables on the Pregnancy Statistics page.

I’ve been reading of TLR operations done to those who have their tubes tide. But, What about women like me who have them burned? Is their any possibility that I can have this procedure done with success? By the way I’m 42.

I don't have statistics for year 44 alone, just the group statistics by 5 year categories. But I know that several women age 44 or older have had children, and as long as you are ovulating, either on your own or with ovulation stimulating medications, there is certainly a chance you will conceive. There is a graph that shows fertility rates by age on another blog that may assist you in this regard.

I am 44. I had tubes reversed by Dr. Berger in 1998 and have had three children since. It took me 1.5 years to conceive after my last son in 2005. I miscarried it at 9 weeks. I have taken Clomid and am now on Follistim injections this week. Do you have any statistics for TR with positive results for my age of just turning 44. Is there any hope, or am I wasting my money and having false hope. I do ovulate and had my FSH and LH checked prior to previous pregnancy, and it was good, no problems. Thanks
