Tubal Ligation Reversal: Restoring Fertility

Tubal ligation (ligation), like vasectomy, is a widely used surgical contraception process. However, the younger a woman undergoes a bandage, the greater the chance of regret and the desire to be fertile again.

AMONG THE CAUSES THAT DETERMINE THE DESIRE DESIRE OF TO BACK TO FERTILITY:

  • New wedding
  • Death of child
  • Desire for a new child in the same relationship
  • Psychological intolerance to sterilization.

When a connected patient wishes to become a mother again, the reversal of tubal ligation (ligation) by microsurgery represents an excellent alternative and with a high success rate in terms of natural pregnancy.

The images shown above were taken from the microscope lens and are enlarged to allow a better view.

The wires that appear in the photo on the right are special, thick called “9 zeros” (thinner than a hair) and can only be seen perfectly through the microscope.

The benefits of reversal of tubal ligation are wide when compared to in vitro procedures (the other alternative for a connected woman to be a mother). First, pregnancy rates in in vitro procedures do not reach 50% per attempt. Then, pregnancy occurs with human interference and not by natural means and finally, there are high risks of multiple pregnancies (twins or triplets) in in vitro procedures.
