How much trouble would it be to get my tubes unclamped?

Tubal Reversal -2 answers

I had my tubes clamped with a little micro machine. I don't remember what it is called though. Nonetheless, I want to get the clamp off so that I can try to become pregnant. I am married and seriously want to have a baby with my husband. How much trouble would it be to get my tubes unclamped? If I do this, what are my chances of getting pregnant?

The advantage of using the clips is the extent of damage to the tubes is minimized versus burning of the tubes with electrical charge, which causes local and distant damage. Pregnancy rates are very much related to your age and the quality of the tube that is being reconnected microsopically. A woman aged 35 or younger has a greater chance of pregnancy when compared to someone in their late 30s, 40s, and so on. Also, when it comes to the tubes, less damage translates into higher pregnancy rates as well as a lower ectopic pregnancy rate. Rates are between 55-90%, with an average of about 70%.

A clip tubal ligation is very reversible if the surgeon only placed one clip per side.
