This case report is about a 26 year old woman with no children who had a tubal ligation at age 22. She changed her mind about wanting to have children and came to A Personal Choice to have her tubes untied. But her tubal ligation was with such a destructive method that tubal reversal was not possible.

Women who want more children after tubal ligation must decide between 2 treatment options – in vitro fertilization (IVF) and tubal ligation reversal. IVF is a good treatment for couples who have unexplained infertility, severe sperm disorders, and for women with severely damaged fallopian tubes from pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Tubal ligation reversal is a better treatment for women who have previously had a tubal ligation and who do not have any of the above indications for IVF.

Many doctors will give you less than a warm response when you ask about tubal ligation reversal. Ever wonder why? I hope my personal experience can illustrate why general ob/gyn doctors may not support their patients who want to have their tubal ligations reversed, and why reproductive specialists mostly do IVF. I view tubal ligation reversal as a disappearing surgical skill that may not be available to patients in the future. This is why I asked to join Dr. Berger’s staff at A Personal Choice. To help women with tubal ligations who want to get pregnant is the reason why I have embarked on the path to become a tubal ligation reversal specialist.

At A Personal Choice, we want to maximize the chances for pregnancy after tubal ligation reversal for all of our patients. One step that is helpful in planning for a tubal reversal procedure is examining the pathology report from a patient’s medical record. When a tubal ligation and resection procedure has been performed, a segment of fallopian tube was removed and most likely sent to a pathologist. Therefore, a pathology report should exist in the patient’s medical record. A pathology report will help our tubal reversal doctors determine exactly what was done during a ligation and resection procedure and what your chances of tubal reversal success will be.
