Dr Berger has posted to his tubal reversal blog about the Ethics of Tubal Ligation. He says Doctors who perform tubal ligations should consider the possibility that the patient might in the furure change her mind, and therefore it is preferable to perform a type of tubal ligation better suited to reversing at a later time, should the need arise.
The time interval from tubal ligation to tubal reversal has not been shown to affect pregnancy success rate after tubal reversal surgery. Tubal reversal surgery can be done on women who have had their tubes tied twenty years ago or less than one year. There are many reasons that cause a woman to change her mind and desire more children after a previous sterilization. The desire for more children can happen immediately after tubal ligation or it can happen months or even years later.
Tubal Reversal Message Board discussion about choosing the right doctor for tubal reversal surgery is summarized with this message: “Experience, cost, statistics, bed-side manner…. pick it… decide what criteria you want to use to judge the options on… Dr. Berger will come out on top EVERY TIME!”.
I can’t begin to tell you how different you will find your experience at Chapel Hill! Coming up with the funds for the surgery was very difficult for us as well but truly worth every penny.
