Members of the Chapel Hill Tubal Message Board discuss Body Mass Index (BMI) and tubal reversal surgery. “When I get my BMI down to 35, I will be able to have tubal reversal surgery.” Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center requires a BMI of less than 35, for optimal patient safety.

This article discusses the impact of age on the success of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and tubal ligation reversal surgery. Age is a strong predictor of success in becoming pregnant with either treatment. At Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center, the tubal reversal success rates are higher in every age group when compared to IVF using fresh, nondonor eggs. Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center has the largest know data base of tubal reversal pregnancies in the world
IVF data has been obtained from the latest available national statistics complied by the US Center for Disease Control (2006 Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) Annual Report). Shows the average chance of IVF pregnancy success, not considering age, is 35% per cycle. Anyone considering IVF should be aware of their specific age related chance of success when undergoing IVF. The success rate of IVF, when using fresh nondonor eggs, is heavily dependent on patient age. The IVF nondonor egg birth rate begins a gradual decline between 30-32 and then declines more significantly after 36-38. The IVF live birth rate after the age of 44 comes very close to zero. The average IVF pregnancy rate using nondonor eggs is about 35%.

Operative Reports Before Ligation Reversal Surgery
Undergoing a tubal ligation reversal at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is an important endeavor and we want to maximize every patient’s chance of ligation reversal success.
