Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center specializes in tubal ligation reversal and surgery to repair blocked fallopian tubes.
We want our patients to be well informed, and we have started this series for women over the age of 40 who have had a tubal ligation and want to become pregnant again. The information contained in this series may be helpful to all women considering the alternative treatments of tubal reversal or IVF.
IVF is a procedure designed to by-pass the natural environment where conception occurs – the fallopian tubes. High dose hormonal medications are given to promote the growth of a large number of eggs. The eggs are then retrieved from the ovaries and fertilized in a laboratory. After sufficient egg division, the fertilized eggs or zygotes are then transferred into the uterine cavity through the cervical opening. If they implant successfully, then conception has occurred.
This is the fifth article of a series dedicated to women considering alternatives for pregnancy and tubal ligation reversal after the age of 40.

This article focuses on the surgical and early pregnancy risks for older women having their ‘tubes untied’.
