No. Very few insurance companies and no state provided insurance covers tubal reversal surgery. It is not deemed a necessary surgery and falls into the elective category meaning that if you want it you will have to pay for it out of pocket.
Many fertility specialists have payment plans and there are now companies that give loans for infertility treatments.
In most of my readings on tubaligation and depending on the Doctor who performs the sx. it seems impossible to get pregnant. Eggs have to come down in order for the sperm to pierce them. I have inquired about fetilization in the office though. And basically it is done in a petry dish, egg and sperm and then put into the uterus, where it should either adhere to the walls or fall through. This is the way most places do it for those childless couples who have chosen a surrogate mother. I'm still looking though, cause you never know. I myself have been sterile for some time but had often wondered if I could still get pregnant with my tubes tied and all. Hope this has shed some light.=Medical book reader,==Gayshagirl=
I recently had my tubes tied thinking my husband didn't want anymore kids after we have the fourth ..........but now i found out he has another child three months before I did.I have one son,and three daughters,and i always wanted another son.This last babyI was told it was a boy,come to find out at delivery it was a girl.............the process was already being started because I had a C-Section.Boy do I regret ever doing this,but I will save up all I can to have this reversed,please somebody help me find away.
It depends on the policy and what was specifically covered in the terms of the contract, but generally, most policies will not cover a tubal reversal. The tubal was, in the first place, a deliberate action in an effort to prevent a medical condition; yes, pregnancy is a medical condition. By the standards of most insurance companies, it will be effectively impossible to get them to cover reversal of a tubal ligation.
The main issue in determining coverage is whether the procedure is "medically necessary". If it is, according to a physician, there is a better chance of coverage than if it is elective.
A cheap medical procedure might cost you more in the long run than you plan for. You're probably better off looking for a doctor or clinic within your medical insurance's network.
I had my tubes cut tied and burnt in Sept 03. I got pregnant with my son in June of 06. The doctor swore i had a hole in my tubes and that it would never happen again. I was pregnant again in August of 07. I miscarried that baby. The doctor still stuck by his word that my tubes were still tied it wouldn't happen again. I am now pregnant for the third time since my tubal. Guess the doc was wrong.
i would love to have more kids my ex husband made me get fixed and i don't have the money to untie them but i can care for a baby i wish their was a way i could get them done so i can have the family that I've always wanted even my other kids want me to have a baby if you know of any way to help please tell me
Tubal ligation surgery can be reversed by a reversal surgery. Tubal implants, such as Essure, are not reversible, but in vitro fertilization has high success rates for women with tubal factor infertility.
it mostly runs to 5,000 to 6,000 but that is just for the surgery it doesnt count for the exam before u have the surgery you have to pay that sep.
Success rate for getting pregnant after a tubal reversal range between 40 and 85-percent. Age, type of tubal procedure, length of remaining fallopian tubes, scar tissue in pelvic area, and partner's sperm count all play a role in the success of the pregnancy.
It costs about 700, my mom had it done, wanted a second child
I think it comes down to whether or not the woman is still fertile, as many women start going through menopause at/before this age.
HOWEVER... stastically speaking, theres more chance that the tubes can re-heal themselves as stats show women become slightly more probable of falling pregnant after 10 years or so.
any woman, no matter of the age, has a 1.4% chance of falling pregnant after a tubal ligation (its not 100% as some women think) 8-10 years after the tubal a woman is 1.8 % likely to fall pregnant.
This isn't even counting the fact that a lot of women have had subsequent hysterectomies or gone though menopause by this age, so there is a change, if youre stil ovulating (havent reached menopause yet) that you could fall pregnant, more chance than a 20 yr old on the pill.
goodluck :)
you can look in your phone book, google it, or ask for a referral from your family doctor or OBGYN.
It depends on the company, the policy and/or its medical necessity; some do, and some don't.
yes and no when you get your tubes tied you can still have your priod but no you can no get pregant.
yes you can become pregnant after your tubes are tied, burned, etc. It is very rare but possible.
Hi my name is Elizabeth and i had an infection after my tubes were tied. My symptoms were a very bad fever and shaking all over, i got released and one day later were my stitches were open in one spot it leeked with infection all over. The presure was gone when it leeked out. I did feel a lot better after. And i just let it heal after that. keep it clean and use salean water to clean it.
Yes the costs are covered, but if you want to reverse the surgery you flip the bill.
I cant seem to find any information on this but i had my ligation almost a year ago and my boobs feel significantly larger and I'm measured at a dd now, having always been a b or c gal. No medical evidence but i say it is possible and due most likely to hormonal changes after the procedure.
I would doubt this would be covered, but contact the benefits advisor (should be a number on your card) and ask.
