Can tubal litigation be reversed?

NO

Wait a minute here, yes it can. you would have to see a fertility specialist about this. and it also depends (if you want to get pregnant) on how much tube is left afterwards. i have been reading alot over the weeks behind me and have found that it isn't cheap and that most insurance companies will not cover it. somewhere around 6500 dollars.

good luck to you

    • Bleeding from a skin incision or inside the abdomen.
    • Infection.
    • Damage to other organs inside the abdomen.
    • Side effects from anesthesia.

What type insurance pays for a tubal reversal?

Sorry to say, you can't purchase any insurance that will cover a tubal reversal. The only way insurance covers it if your employer puts it on your coverage plan.... That's the way understood it. I'm going threw the same thing. Some hospitals and doctors will break their fee in half if you don't have any insurance that's what mine is doing!!!!

Can you have a successful pregnancy if your tubes come untied?

You shouldn't be able to get pregnant is correct, but that answer is only if you live in a perfect world. I know that I have had a child and a miscarriage after my tubes were tied. There is no guaranty when the tubes are tied.

When there is a tubal ligation reversal what are the chances of becoming pregnant?

According to my research the chances are actually greater than ivf. May god bless you with a child as I feel your pain. I am in the same situation and actually starting my own business to save all proceeds for the procedure. After seven years I am going for a reversal because all my research (extensive over the past 3 years) says that the chances are greater and is less expensive. My pain may be somewhat deeper as I am a childless mother may we pray for each other. Prayer does work!

How fast does the sperm reach the egg?

Not really bad, but you enjoy sex, or masturbation, longer if you manage to postpone the ejaculation.

After a tubal ligation is there a test that can be taken that can tell you whether or not it has failed?

Only by a abdominal scan and tests. I doubt if you could tell if a tubal ligation is still intact with an ultrasound. The only way I am aware you could tell for sure would be with a laparoscopy or a hyysterosalpingogram (a test where dye is injected into the uterus and tubes and then an X-Ray is taken). Unless you have gotten pregnant, why would you suspect the tubal ligation is no longer effective?

How can a women get pregnant with tubes tied?

Yes. It is very possible to still get pregnant after having your tubes tied. But sadly most of the pregnancies do not carry through because they do end up being "Tube" pregnancies which can be very harmful for the woman.

Can you get Medicaid after having tubal ligation?

What is Tubal sterilization?

A tubal ligation is a surgical procedure done in women to permanently prevent conception and pregnancy. It can be done in various ways but the term literally means tying or binding of the tubes (Fallopian tubes). This is why you hear it referred to as having your "tubes tied".
Tubal ligation or tubectomy a.k.a. having one's "tubes tied" is a surgical procedure for sterilization in which a woman's fallopian tubes are clamped and blocked, or severed and sealed, either method of which prevents eggs from reaching the uterus for fertilization. Tubal ligation is considered a permanent method of sterilization or birth control.

What is fimbrioplasty I had a tubal ligation with the fimbriae removed and a reversal done 12 years later. Can I still have children?

If the procedure is successful and your ovaries are in tact, you could conceive

How much does a tubal cost in Canada?

In Canada the tubal ligation is covered by Health Care. I live in Alberta and I had mine done January 2005 and it was completely covered. The age is left to the discretion of the doctor providing the tubal. My doctor said as soon as you turn 18 you can have it done, but another doctor said after 25 years of age. Good Luck

What health insurance covers tubal ligation reversal?

There are essentially no insurance companies that will cover tubal ligation reversal. Many clinics that perform the procedure offer payment plans that spread the cost of the quite expensive surgery.

How do you take out tubal ligation and get pregnant again?

There are two options for women who have had a previous tubal ligation and now desire to have more children: 1) tubal reversal surgery and, 2) in vitro fertilization (IVF). Although tubal reversal surgery is not right for everyone, in most cases it is the most successful and most cost-effective option for pregnancy after sterilization. With pregnancy rates averaging 75% and a cost of $5900, tubal reversal surgery is usually more desirable than IVF with pregnancy rates of approximately 27% and costs exceeding $8,000 per IVF cycle.

One way to determine whether tubal reversal surgery is the best option for you is through an interpretation of the operative report from your tubal ligation. With this information, the doctor is able to provide feedback on the type of sterilization that was performed and the amount of tube that may be remaining after the reversal.

Your local doctor can perform the required pre-operative lab tests for you. The lab testing should be completed within a day or two of scheduling surgery to ensure results are in at least three weeks prior to the surgery date. An anesthesiologist may contact you before your surgery date. The discussion may include reviewing your health and anesthesia history. Depending on your health history, additional lab or medical testing may be required.

Signs you are pregnant?

You're symptoms of pregnancy include: missed period, fatigue, swollen and or tender breasts, mood swings, flu like symptoms, nausea, implantation bleeding (slightly different than a period) etc. Not all women will experience pregnancy symptoms so if you do suspect you might be pregnant, you should take a test rather than relying solely on symptoms. Not all women do experience a missed period during the first few weeks of pregnancy, so again, it is important to use other determinations of pregnancy other than symptoms. It is important for you to confirm your pregnancy as soon as possible to ensure the proper care and safety of you and your new baby. Most of these symptoms will start about two weeks after the first day of your missed period.

Medicaid help pay for tubal reversal in n.j?

I'm sorry to hear your having second thoughts about your tubal you had like me, but there is a down side here, i have contacted medicaid and read on there website as well that they will not help pay nor will they pay at all to have your tubal reversed, sad but true since they cover it done they should cover at least part of it to reverse but they don't, the upside is to this that Newark medical center does offer the reversal in New Jersey and you maybe able to get it done using charity care straight from the hospital or if you can get your doctor to prove it is medically nessassary like for example it is causing changing that are hazzardious to your health then you may get it somewhere at a discounted rate.

also there is a slight chance if you have had your tubes banned that the bands will fail or if your tubes were cut like mine that they will grow back.

however if you do happen to find a place that does do it for little to nothing by all means let me know too i am dieing to get this undone!

Can you get pregnant if your tubal clamp falls off?

Can you become pregnant after having a tubal ligation 3 years ago?

Anything is possible but there havent been many cases of this in the years they have done tubal ligation. Go back to that same doctor and have them test you and if you are pregnant, they owe you an explanation and some money....Good luck. Yes. My tubal ligation failed 6 weeks after the surgery. I had a hysterosalpingogram shortly thereafter that showed one tube 100% open. Regardless of whether you trust your physician, if you are in fact pregnant, ask for an immediate referral to another, impartial physician (don't stick with the original physician, which is what I did!). A reputable physician will understand, indeed, will be most concerned that you receiving optimal care. In my case, despite having a good prior relationship with my physician, this physician turned out to be both in denial and frankly dishonest once it became apparently that the surgery was probably, then definitely, a failure. I had a lot of trouble with my insurance company and in obtaining an accurate diagnosis as a result of this physician's behavior.
