Tubal Reversal or IVF
Many women have had a tubal ligation and then seriously consider becoming pregnant again, Many fertility doctor will say in vitro fertilization (or IVF) is the best or only option.
For most women, however, tubal reversal surgery is actually the better option. Once their tubes are repaired, there is the chance that they could become pregnant naturally each and every month.
With IVF, they have to be injected with medication and have a minor surgical procedure performed each time they attempt to get pregnant. Based on current national statistics, the pregnancy rate for IVF is approximately 27% and costs between $8,000 to $20,000 for each treatment cycle.
At Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center, the cost for the surgery is $5900 and pregnancy rates are approximately 75%! In almost all cases, tubal reversal is the most successful and cost-effective alternative for pregnancy in women who have been previously sterilized and now desire to have another baby.

Dr. Berger's statistics are especially informative regarding choices for women desiring pregnancy. Unfortunately, there are more practitioners interested in IVF than tubal reversal surgery. Obviously there is a greater monetary reward for those offering IFV. Hopefully women will educate themselves with actual statistics before making this investment and decision.
