How much does tubal ligation costs?

Tubal ligation reversal costs can range from $5,000 to $15,000 depending upon the type of surgery required. Your cost may include separate charges for the surgery, anesthesia, and the hospital or surgical center. Most insurance plans won't cover this procedure so look for ways to cut costs using the tax code, or by purchasing supplemental insurance to cover your pregnancy.


How much does tubal ligation reversal cost?

I have also wondered this. I had a tubal in 2005 and have sometimes regretted it. I have looked on the web and have not found anything about free tubal reversals. I hope you find one and if not maybe God will take matters into his own hands and give you a child. Good luck.


What is the success rate of tubal reversal?

Tubal reversal success depends on two main factors: type or tubal ligation and the age of the woman at the time of tubal reversal surgery. The tubal reversal success rate can be as high as 80% for women who are under the age of 30 and also for women who have had tubal clip or tubal ring type tubal ligations. The tubal reversal success can also be as high as 30-50% for women over the age of 40 or those who have had unknown types of tubal ligations. Even among women over the age of 40 or women with unknown types of tubal ligations approximately 1 out of 3 women will become pregnant.


How successful is tubal ligation reversal if you've had a tubal ligation 12 years ago?

Tubal ligation is a permanent fix. It cuts, ties and burns the tubes whereas making it almost impossible for the egg to pass through for fertilization. There is only a 0.5 percent chance I believe that you could then get pregnant. This is not birth control, its a permanent solution to no longer have more children.


Can you have a tubal ligation if you had a hysterectomy?

It depends on the type of hysterectomy you have had. If you still retained the fallopian tubes then yes you can have them ligated. However, this is normally done to prevent pregnancy and as you have no uterus after the hysterectomy, there does not seem any need for this.


You got a tubal ligation in 1999 and you want to have a child with your husband what do you do?

Depending on the type of tubal ligation you had, some doctors are able to sew the tubes back together. This is a very difficult surgery (for the doctor, not the patient) and is often not covered by insurance, so can be very expensive. Some couples decide to do IVF (in-vitro fertilization) since that can sometimes be less expensive than the surgery. You should talk to your gynecologist or a reproductive endocrinologist/infertility specialist.


How long is the healing process of tubal ligation?

I heard that it can take up to 8 weeks to fully recover from a tubal. I had a scheduled C section, and a tubal. I am now one month post, and I feel tender still in areas, and still feel kinda bloated. I just started to feel little "twinges" on my left side, in my ovarie area. They are sharp, and only come on at times.. Anyway, remember, I had a C section also, so the recovery time for just a tubal is probably sooner.AnswerI had a tubal ligation laproscopically (not at the time of a pregnancy/birth)last week. It is exactly one week later, and I feel totally fine, and have resumed all my normal activities and sexual intercourse. The first day I was groggy from the anesthesia and a little sore around my belly button (where the incision was). The second day, I was sore around my neck area from the gas they used to bloat my diaphragm for the surgery. The third day, I was able to lift my son again, and my belly wasn't sore, but the second small incision in the pubic area was a bit tender. But by the fourth day, I felt great. After one week, I still have bruising around my belly button, but am back to normal otherwise! :) AnswerI am 43 and had my tubes tied the beginning of Feb. The recovery was pretty quick. I had a sore belly(like I did too many sit ups!) for a few days and gas pains. I had the surgery on Friday and went back to work on Tuesday. You just can't do any heavy lifting for a few weeks. I really did feel back to normal in about a week.
