Getting Pregnant After Reversal: Not Always An Easy Road
Dr. Monteith
I had my tubal reversal in 2012. My first pregnant was an ectopic pregnancy in 2012. My second pregnancy was also an ectopic in 2014 followed by removal of right tube.
I had three BFP (big fat pregnancy tests) in March 2015 and I am currently 5 months pregnant!
Patient age: 32
Tubal ligation type: Coagulation (burned)
Patient hometown: Greenville, North Carolina
Getting Pregnant After Reversing Tubes
Reversing tubes can be a great way to become pregnant. In comparison to IVF, reversing tubes can be more successful and more affordable than in-vitro fertilization.
Most patients will become pregnant after tubal reversal and most will become pregnant within the first 12 months. Some tubal reversal patients will require more time and some will have abnormal pregnancies they will have to deal with.
This patient’s pregnant report demonstrates it is not always an easy road traveled after tubal reversal. Some patients will prevail but others will lose hope.
Tubal reversal always provides a chance for pregnancy and many patients who are determined will ultimately overcome in the end. Hope can keep them going and for many success lies just over the next hill.
