Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I had my tubes clipped and burned a few years ago, and now I’m wondering if there’s still a chance for me to have a child. Is there any way to reverse the procedure or get pregnant naturally?

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

Yes, it is still possible to have a child even if your tubes are clipped and burned. Assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization (IVF) can bypass the fallopian tubes entirely by retrieving eggs directly from the ovaries, fertilizing them in a lab, and implanting the embryo into the uterus. Another option is tubal reversal surgery, though its success depends on factors like the length and condition of the remaining tubes. If neither option is suitable or successful, adoption is also a path to parenthood. A consultation with a reproductive specialist will help determine the best approach based on your specific situation.

 

Thanks
