The first reported tubal sterilization using bipolar electrocoagulation was in 1972. With bipolar coagulation, the electrical current can be more precisely controlled resulting in less tubal damage than monopolar coagulation. Approximately 60- 70% of patients at A Personal Choice become pregnant after a reversal of a bipolar coagulation sterilization procedure.
Many people believe tubal sterilization is permanent and irreversible. Although tubal sterilization with Falope rings is intended to be permanent, this procedure can be reversed. Falope rings cause destruction of a minimal length of fallopian tube and reversal of this type of tubal ligation gives excellent results. Approximately 75% of patients at A Personal Choice become pregnant after a reversal of a Falope ring sterilization procedure.
The Hulka clip tubal method of tubal sterilization is the ideal one for tubal reversal. The Hulka clip is only 7 mm in width and does not cause any inflammation of the fallopian tubes. The pregnancy rate after tubal reversal Hulka clip sterilization is 76% at A Personal Choice.
Fishie Clip sterilization is one of the best tubal sterilization procedures to reverse since it causes minimal damage to the fallopian tubes. Women whose tubes have been ‘tied’ by Filshie clips have a 75% pregnancy rate at A Personal Choice.

There really is no such thing as simply “tying tubes”. Many people seem to imagine the fallopian tubes are like a shoe lace and we tie them up in a bow to prevent pregnancy. As a tubal ligation reversal specialist, I wish it were that simple- then reversing tied tubes would be a whole lot easier!
