Although reversal surgery at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is statistically and financially the best option for pregnancy after a tubal ligation, women over age 40 have a special set of circumstances that are – unfortunately – often not addressed during an IVF consultation. The truth is, most IVF clinics will not accept patients over age 40 or 42 unless they agree to use donor eggs (eggs from a younger woman). This is to help keep their statistics high. We performed IVF for many years at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center and Dr. Berger is now limiting his practice to tubal reversal surgery for a reason: It gives women who have previously had a sterilization the chance to conceive naturally again — without medications, shots, and continued expense each time they want to conceive. Most of the women who contact us have already considered IVF – and have definitely ruled out donor egg IVF -and for good reason. It will be very important to ask your reproductive specialist very directly whether he/she will accept a woman age 42 for IVF without donor eggs or decline you if your FSH level is slightly elevated (as many clinics do).

During National Infertility Week, starting today October 20th, a lot of attention in the media will be given to the treatment of In Vitro Fertilitzation (IVF). This is a technologically advanced treatment for most causes of infertility. But what about those couples who want to have a baby but can’t because of a previous tubal ligation? There are hundreds of thousands of infertile couples in this group in the US. Is IVF the best treatment for them? Let’s compare the two treatments to see which might be the best one for women whose tubes have been tied.

Tubal Reversal Surgery More Successful Than IVF

Members of The Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center message board discuss having tubal reversal surgery after failed IVF attempts. For most women who have had their tubes tied and now desire more children, tubal reversal surgery is more successful and less expensive than the other option of in vitro fertilization (IVF). With IVF, drugs must be administered and a minor surgical procedure performed each time a women wants to try to conceive. With pregnancy rates of only 27% per cycle – and a cost of approximately $10,000 – $15,000 per cycle, IVF can become expensive quickly. When the reversal is performed by Dr. Gary Berger, success rates are nearly 75% and the cost is a one-time all-inclusive fee of $5900.

When a woman wants to have a baby, she can have the most emotional and gut wrenching feelings in her heart day after day. However, when a woman has had her tubes tied and then realizes that she made a big mistake, the overwhelming sense of guilt and anguish can be too much to bear. She may have changed her mind due to a life change such as the loss of another child or even a new marriage. No matter what the reason, her primary goal becomes how to improve her chances of getting pregnant after having a tubal ligation.

Summary
Results of the most recent and largest study of pregnancies and pregnancy outcomes after tubal reversal surgery are now available from the Tubal Reversal Pregnancy Study Report 2007. This is a prospective observational study of over 3000 women who had their tubal reversal procedures performed by Dr. Gary Berger during the 5 year period 2001-2005. The overall pregnancy rate after tubal reversal was 69%. Age at the time of reversal surgery was an important factor associated with pregnancies and their outcomes. Age-specific pregnancy rates were: 82% for women under 30, 76% for ages 30-34, 67% for ages 35-39, and 41% for women 40 years or older. Pregnancy outcomes were also associated with age. Younger women had lower miscarriages rates and higher birth rates than older women.
