Question

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?

Thank you for your question. The price of the reversals varies because different hospitals or outpatient facilities have different fees. Surgeons also have different fees based on their preferences.
Those of us that do a lot of outpatient microsurgery or tubal reversals can usually get better pricing for our patients based on more frequent use of the outpatient facilities.
The price can still vary depending on the risk status of the patient. If a patient has had multiple incisions or if the patient is overweight, the increased surgical risk and time is passed on to the patient as a higher cost.
In our facility we have one of the most affordable global fees for tubal reversal. This low cost is a reflection of the quantity of procedures performed as well as lower business costs in our area.
