Tubal Ligation Reversal: a hope for infertile mothers

According to several research studies, about 10% of women who have undergone tubal litigation surgery regret their decision and out of these 10% women, 1% women actually decide to go for tubal reversal surgery.

Tubal ligation reversal is a surgical process in which surgeons unclamp or reattach fallopian tubes of a woman. Fallopian tubes are places wherein the fertilization of eggs takes place. This microscopic procedure is safe and has the success rates of 70-80%.

However, every woman can not withstand tubal ligation reversal surgery. After consulting a surgeon, a patient needs to undergo a thorough medical check-up. After a satisfactory evaluation of all medical reports, a surgeon recommends for the tubal reversal surgery.

The success of tubal ligation depends on three main factors:

The original method used in the tubal litigation method.
The time gap between the tubal litigation and the tubal litigation reversal processes, and
Condition of the fallopian tubes

If you are willing to go for tubal litigation reversal, make sure you contact a recognized fertility clinic.

Motherhood is a gift, and hence, you can afford to take chances provided your security is intact.

Encountering the infertility problems

The inability of being natural parents is not gender specific. According to survey, one third of the reported infertility cases are caused due to the female partner, one third due to the male and still one third due to unknown reasons. Multiple miscarriages may also cause infertility. Whatever may be reason, embryo transfer can help to materialize your dream of being natural parents. In this process, an embryo is formed in the laboratory using the eggs of the woman and the sperm of the man. Then the embryo is placed in the uterus of the woman to establish a successful pregnancy.

The process of embryo transfer is expensive. But there is a relief, when you take into account the increase in number of fertility clinics and medial tourism in countries like India. India is now a hub for cost-effective surrogacy and embryo transfer. The success rate of embryo transfer depends upon factors like the age of the partners, reason of infertility and the skills of the concerned fertility clinic.

Embryo Transfer - Affects IVF Success Rates

In vitro fertilization is the procedure in which the man’s sperm and woman’s egg are collected out of their body and are fertilized in laboratory and put back in the woman who can carry pregnancy term. The process is also known as embryo transfer because the fertilized embryos are transferred to the woman’s body to facilitate pregnancy. A large number of women have successfully given birth to healthy babies through this procedure and it has proved to be a boon to those who could not conceive through the normal reproduction process. In medical terms, the process is extremely safe although some pain has to be tolerated while removing the eggs from the woman.

The doctors prefer to place 2-3 embryos in the woman’s uterus keeping in view the chance that if one failure occurs, the others will at least survive. That is why there have been many cases of twins or triplets or even more than that with this procedure in case all the placed embryos become successful in becoming babies.
