Vasectomy Reversal TipsMy Tips on Vasectomy Reversal

Congratulations to the 11 ladies who announced their pregnanciest this week after undergoing Tubal Reversal Surgery with Dr. Gary Berger. Although tubal reversal is not right for everyone, Dr. Berger can successfully repair the fallopian tubes in 98% of women who have had a tubal ligation, regardless of the type of sterilization procedure. Over two-thirds of Dr. Berger’s patients become pregnant in an average of 10 months after their reversal procedure.

Jeannine asks on the Tubal Reversal Message Board for input from other message board members about early pregnancy symptoms with untied tubes. She posts, “Okay, I know you can find out what early pregnancy symptoms are on the web. However, I was wondering if some of the women on the board would share their early pregnancy symptoms and when did they start to experience them (how many DPO).” Pregnancy signs and symptoms differ among women and pregnancies. The most common early pregnancy sign is delayed menstruation. Some women experience pregnancy signs even before their period is delayed. For others, signs or symptoms will not develop over a few weeks or may not even be present at all. Understanding pregnancy signs and symptoms is important for women who have had their tubes untied. Dr. Berger recommends monitoring early pregnancy with quantitative serum HCG assays and scheduling an ultrasound exam when the HCG level reaches 1500. Dr. Berger and his staff at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center want to be kept informed of all results. Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is the only facility that exclusively performs tubal reversal surgery, and it has set a new standard for patient care by following up with patients and providing accurate, up-to-date pregnancy statistics.

Hi everyone! I found out today that the pathology report said they took very little of my tubes..not even 1cm…does that mean my tubes are not very long though? And does it make a difference in the size? I know im probably so paranoid..havent heard nothing on the loan yet, im getting impatient…keep your fingers crossed for me I should have an answer tomorrow!

Kacy I think it depend on who did your TL. My report said he took 1 cm from each side yet I ended up with 2.5 and 5. I think my Dr. folded my tube in half and cut it. I was expecting much longer tubes than I got. Also it depends on which type of TL you had. I had ligation resection. Your’s sound good though, so I wouldn’t worry at all. I was just glad I had something to work with,

Lots of Love.

Kacy, unfortunately, I’ve heard way too often that the reports were erroneous when it comes to figuring your lengths. Don’t worry though… there are plenty of short-tubers that get those
BFP’s and I see less of them with blocked tubes, so I guess it’s a mixed blessing. If you are worried, you can chose to have the LAP done to see what Dr. Berger can do before TR. To be honest, it really depends on WHAT kind of TL you had that mostly determines your tube lengths.

Kacy, I didn’t have pathology reports for my TL, but my tubes were coagulated in three places on each tube. Dr.Berger did LAP and was able to continue with reversal . My tube lenghts are L 3.5 & R 5.5 . It’s been 5 months since surgery.

Fax it to 919-967-8637 and make sure that you have an e-mail address or telephone number and they will give you results within 24 hours.
Think positive.

Hi, I just had my TR done today. This is my first time posting to any of the boards. I was told that my TL’s are 6 and 7 centimeters. My age is still a factor, but I’m praying for God to give us a baby. I believe it’s a miracle that TR’s are available to women today.

Are you thinking of microsurgical vasectomy reversal in order to have more children? Have you had a vasectomy and wish to father children once more? Then do not worry – there is a procedure that can help to successfully reverse the operation of vasectomy. Microsurgical vasectomy reversal is an operation whereby the tubes are rejoined in order for sperm to be able to flow once again and allow fatherhood to be contemplated. Without it, a vasectomy is a permanent way of avoiding fathering children.

Complications- Though rare, there may arise some difficulties following vasectomy reversal. These include the oozing of blood from the corners of the scrotal incision, which usually stops within 12 hours following the procedure. Some patients may incur a large bruise that settles with time and rest. Also, there are chances of an infection that is quite painful, accompanied by the scrotum acquiring a red colour. Immediately contact your vasectomy reversal doctor in case of any of the above complications!

Having a vasectomy is a big decision. The choice not to have children was once thought of to be a permanent one. However, today there is a new option available to men who have had a vasectomy who now want to have children. For them, a vasectomy reversal seems to be a viable choice. However, vasectomy reversals can be very expensive and insurance often doesn’ t cover the procedure. For many men, financing a vasectomy reversal should be considered.
