Pregnant After Reversing Tubal Clips
Dr. Monteith
I had one miscarriage January 2012 at 9 weeks. I had given up I didn’t think I would be able to have another baby.
I was shocked when I found out I was pregnant and just about 12 weeks already. Blew my mind!
I had my first ob and ultrasound today and everything looks good and I’m about 14 weeks. I’m so very happy thank you Dr Monteith!

What is the Success of Tubal Clip Reversal?
Tubal clips are intended to be permanent but tubal clips do not have to be permanent
If you have had a tubal clip sterilization procedure and would like to have more children then you have three options: tubal ligation reversal surgery, in-vitro fertilization (IVF), or adoption.
Although many health care providers believe tubal ligation procedures cannot easily be reversed, we are able to surgically reverse most sterilization procedures and provide patients of A Personal Choice with a chance to become pregnant after sterilization.

Tubal Reversal or IVF?
Are you trying to decide between having tubal reversal or IVF? If you are fortunate enough to have a successful procedure you can have more than one child! If a cycle of IVF does not work then you must try again. Most experts recommend planning on having up to 3 IVF cycles to increase your chances of becoming pregnant with IVF treatment.
The alternative to tubal reversal is in-vitro fertilization (IVF). IVF costs about $14,000 for each cycle and each cycle is around 38% successful.
