Tubal ligation reversal or IVF: best treatment?
The best treatment to become pregnant after tubal ligation is often a personal decision. Both tubal reversal and IVF can help women become pregnant after a tubal ligation. IVF is often seen as quicker and tubal reversal is often seen as a more natural alternative that can allow pregnancy with an opportunity each month.
Tubal ligation reversal surgery: Affordable and successful
Tubal reversal costs $6400 at A Personal Choice and approximately 2 out of every 3 women will become pregnant with tubal reversal.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) costs $14,000 for each attempt and each IVF attempt is approximately 38% successful.
Tubal reversal is often more affordable and more successful than IVF. Tubal reversal surgery allows women the ability to have more than one child without seeing their doctor for costly infertility treatments.
Is IVF faster than tubal reversal?
Some people think IVF will get them pregnant faster than tubal reversal surgery will.
A single IVF cycle takes 2 to 4 weeks to complete and it takes another 1 to 3 weeks to confirm success of IVF. IVF can get you pregnant faster but if your single cycle does not work then you will have to try multiple times more in an attempt to become pregnant.
The American Society of Reproductive Medicine consistently states tubal reversal surgery can be cumulatively more effective (meaning more successful over time) and more affordable than in-vitro. They also emphasize tubal reversal can be more of a benefit than IVF in older women.
Tubal reversal allows a chance every month and over time those chances add up. Not only do the monthly chances add up…but after a successful pregnancy you are able to try again to have as many children as you would like.
