Answers:
The decision for tubal ligation or having your tubes tied should be considered a permanent decision. Still, it is possible to conceive after this procedure.

A recent study showed that an alarming percentage of women who had had the procedure conceived accidentally. This problem has been remedied by cutting, tying and burning the ends of the fallopian tubes.

If you want to actively reverse this there are two options. The first is to have surgery to rejoin the tubes. This does not have a very high success rate. At best, it is up to 60%. If there are any other problems, such as short remaining tubes, or other damage to them, the rates are quite low. The rate of success is decreased for women whose tubes have been burned, due to more extensive tubal damage. There is also a much greater risk of ectopic pregnancy with rejoined tubes. This is because there is often scarring and narrowing of the tubes where they are rejoined. The ovum may be too large to pass through the constricted portion, yet it can still be fertilized. Success has also been found to depend on the age of the woman, the technique of ligation, tubal length after rejoining, and if one or both tubes are rejoined.

The second option is in vitro fertilization. This also has a low success rate. It can vary with the clinic involved, but generally it is between 10-25%. It also carries the possibility of an increased risk of ovarian cancer. The woman must be given doses of female hormones to stimulate the production of several eggs in one cycle. This large dose of hormones is thought to be the cause of cancer in some women twenty or thirty years after the procedure. The studies are not yet clear on this issue, because we haven't been doing this procedure on enough people to know for certain.



GOOD LUCK

well probsbly not but you can pay to get then untie it cost a lot

Yes, but you'll have to have surgery to have them "untied."

It's possible, but not likely. My aunt did get pregnant after ehr tubal, and had a son. Most likely though if you want more kids, you will need to have a tubal reversal. I've done a lot of research on reversal docs, feel free to IM me sometime if you want more info about reversals.

there is a surgical procedure where you can get your tubal reversed..It's expensive & not that effective in restoring fertility & your other alternative is in vitro which is also expensive/only partially effective, but it's worth a try.
