Preparing For Tubal Reversal Surgery

 

One of the biggest things to remember when preparing for tubal reversal surgery is to have a OB/GYN who will support your decision. This can be a stress in many women's lives because they do not always know how their current physician is going to react.

For the most part many physicians will not have an issue with the Early Pregnancy Protocol following tubal reversal surgery. But, there are some who want to do things their way.

Dr. Berger and Dr. Monteith of Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center follow their patients after the surgery and they are adamant that Early Pregnancy Protocol is followed. The risk of ectopic pregnancy is higher after the procedure and the surgeons want to be sure that none of their tubal reversal patients are put at risk.

For more information  on how patients cope with early pregnancy and finding the right OB/GYN to work with after the procedure the tubal reversal message board is a great place to begin.

For those who cannot find the answers they are looking for the tubal reversal staff is available seven days a week to help you.

Preparing For Tubal Ligation Reversal

For the patients that are scheduled for tubal ligation reversal surgery at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center the excitement is allover the tubal reversal message board.

Many of the patients are taking advantage of the discounted fee which isn’t going to last much longer. One of the things the women are counting on is getting their tax returns and packing for the trip they have waited so long for.

If you were to read the message board it sounds more like a vacation by way of cruise or to a tropical island is in store but this is surgery. Who couldn’t help being excited over being able to have a child again or getting rid of Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome.

The discounted tubal ligation reversal fee has come just at the right time and many are taking advantage of it while they can.

Some of the most common questions are:

  • What should I bring to wear?
  • Where are the good places to eat at and to see while we are there?
  • How did you feel right after surgery?
  • Is there is discount on the hotel too?
  • And how long until you were feeling back to normal?

These are all very common questions and the answers to these and many more can be found on the tubal ligation reversal message board. For those seeking information the website has videos, a tubal reversal blog and a wonderful staff on hand to answer any questions you may have.

Tubal Ligation Reversal-Pregnancy After 40

Okay, so a “younger” crowd would look at this title and probably think we are crazy. But the truth of the matter is more and more women are waiting until they reach a later age to have children. And tubal ligation reversal patients are really no different.

Many times when a women after the age of forty informs people she is having tubal ligation reversal surgery they look at her like she is nuts. No, she has just decided that she wants a child or two after having her tubes tied.

Women decide on tubal ligation reversal surgery for different reasons and it is a very personal decision and should not be taken lightly.

The tubal ligation reversal patients on the  Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center message board pretty much sum it up. Yes, they realize it may take them longer to conceive. And yes, they know how old they are (even when people think they are crazy for wanting to start all over).

And these tubal ligation reversal patients also have the wisdom to look to the future and to be ready because it may not be the easiest road traveled but they are still willing to give it that shot because if they didn’t they would never know what could have happened if they didn’t go through with the surgery. All in all there is much credit to be given to these couples and the fact of the matter is many become pregnant surprisingly quick.

The Cost Of Tubal Ligation Reversal

When a couple decides they want to have a child after tubal ligation reversal what is the cost of the surgery? Many believe that going out of the country to places such as India will be more cost effective. But, is it really?

If you do the research you may find that leaving the country is not only not less expensive but it can break the budget. Only after booking the actual date of the tubal ligation surgery do many people find out the added expenses and many of the centers will not reimburse the fees if the couple changes their mind.

in-or-video

Tubal ligation reversal by the most talented of surgeons is available here in the Untied States at very affordable prices. Many times women and couples do not realize that they can find a center that has fees that are all inclusive. There is no worry that you will get a separate bill from any of the medical staff such as the anesthesia dept. Everything will be paid for and the only concern will be resting after the outpatient surgery.

The leading tubal ligation reversal center in the United States is Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. The surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure and can be thousands less than those who choose surgeons only able to perform the surgery in a hospital setting.

Tubal Reversal Surgery Explained By Dr. Monteith

In this video, Dr. Monteith of Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center explains tubal reversal surgery to a couple in the preoperative consultation.

Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center has long been known for their excellent patient care. When patients ask what are the chances of becoming pregnant after tubal reversal surgery they are met with great statistics.

Trying To Conceive And Feeling Hopeless After Tubal Reversal

All too many times after tubal reversal many women expect to get pregnant right away. The trying to conceive is supposed to be fun right? But, what happens when the positive pregnancy test does not come about right away?

When the tubal reversal surgery is over many feel that the hard part is over and done with. You are pretty well healed from the surgery except for the occasional pulling or twinge. Now the easy part of getting pregnant. Oh wait, this isn't;t working as planned. And many times the feeling is this never took this long when I was younger.

The truth is that it may take longer trying to conceive after tubal reversal for some. And it may lead to frustration and disappointment to many. This is a discussion on the tubal reversal message board on the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center website.

For many the month to month job of trying to conceive can become draining. The temping along with trying to time everything just right for when that egg releases only to get a negative pregnancy test is enough to make may throw their arms up in defeat.

The main thing to remember is to relax and let nature take its course. The stress and worry are not going to help. Although this may not help much there are many in your shoes and support is available from those going through the same thing.

What are some ways to help in the ttc journey? Have you found that this is stressful for you?

Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome Causing Problems

It does not surprise women who suffer from Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome the problems it can cause in relationships. Just today I was reading a blog from a woman who suffers from PTLS and it is causing so many problems and she is in the process of getting her tubal reversal surgery appointment date set.

Many times women do not know they are actually suffering from Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome. All they know is they are going through things that many of us cannot fully understand unless we are in their shoes. One woman explains her cycles as two weeks of spotting and then 2 weeks of heavy bleeding. Not counting the exhaustion that goes with it. And the mood swings and feelings are depression are unbearable. No matter how hard you tell yourself to be happy it doesn’t work.

As far as the marital relationship husband cannot understand why she does not want to be intimate. Painful intercourse and bleeding or spotting may be a great reason. But, of course this is causing issues in other aspects of their relationship because it is now affecting communication.

Having a social life is something that women who suffer from Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome just want no part of. Depression,exhaustion and bleeding will do that to the most social butterflies out there.

If you suffer from Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome or think you may there is excellent reading on the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center website. Also, there is a message board with women who suffer and were suffering from this and they will say it like it is. Some have been lucky enough to have their tubal reversal surgery while others are waiting and getting the much needed support from those who know what it is about.

Ask a woman why she had her tubes tied and many will tell you it’s the biggest mistake they have ever made.

Tubal Reversal Success Rate After Surgery

When couples try to decide between IVF and tubal reversal they begin to check the success rates. What is the tubal reversal success rate after surgery?

The answer may surprise you and with the Pregnancy Statistics completed by Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center the answer is a great one.

There are factors that contribute to the tubal reversal success rate after pregnancy. The two main ones are your age and the time of tubal ligation that was performed.

As we get older of course like everything else or eggs are not as young as they used to be. Not that this is the end of the world but it may take longer to conceive. The type of tubal ligation that was performed will determine the amount of healthy fallopian tubes that remains after tubal reversal surgery. The consensus is the longer amount of healthy tubes that remains results in the chance to conceive faster.

Although some women do have shorter tubes such as those on the tubal reversal message board that have formed the group “Tiny Tube Club” do get pregnant and some relatively quick.

For those who are searching for information on tubal reversal success rate after surgery the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center website holds a vast amount of easy to understand information.

The tubal reversal nurses are also available to answer any questions you may have. They can be reached at (919) 968-4656 for a free phone consultation.

Tubes Untied And Charting Your Cycle

 

For those women that have had tubal reversal surgery and are now trying to conceive the tubal reversal surgery may seem like the easy part. As many know without having to read is that trying to conceive isn’t always that easy.

The great thing is with tubal reversal surgery it is a much more natural way to get pregnant. Once the surgery is completed you do not need the medical intervention that is required with IVF.

One of the things that many do realize and some do not is that it is not always the easiest thing to conceive that first baby. And, it may take a few months and even a year or more. For many they have the high hopes that they will get pregnant within the first cycle and it doesn’t always happen this way.

The months seem to drag on. In the meantime, many are taking their basal body temperature and using the ovulation predictor kits faithfully. It is just very important that this is the natural way of getting pregnant and the timing needs to be right. It is proven that each month a woman has a 25% chance of becoming pregnant. This is a study completed on women that have not had tubal reversal surgery. This is the average woman who is trying to start or expand her family.

For many the stress of trying to conceive can become all-consuming and sometimes a break is needed. Remarkably, many women actually conceive during this time. Many suggest that this is due to less stress and pressure of trying to become pregnant.

Many women who have chosen to have tubal reversal are older now and have children that are almost fully grown. This is all the more reason to not give up faith and keep trying. For some it will take longer but as many tubal reversal patients say, “If it is worth it is worth working and waiting for.”

Many women have tubal reversal for the chance to have a child again. Yes, it may be a bit of time before you actually conceive but it is all worth it in the end.

For more information and facts about tubal reversal Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is the leading authority and has couples travel from all over the world for a second chance of having children after a tubal ligation.

So, what are the chances of getting pregnant after tubal reversal? Actually quite good and proven better than IVF. There are  factors to keep in mind when considering tubal reversal.

Your Age

- the older you are the less egg reserve you have. This may result in taking longer in conceiving and successful pregnancy.

One of the the suggestions made on the tubal ligation reversal message board at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is to try to track your monthly cycle before the tubal ligation reversal. Each woman is different and so are her cycles. By using the method of Basal Body Temping and OPK’s (ovulation predictor kits) you can see when in your cycle you are actually ovulating.

By knowing your cycle before the tubal ligation reversal this will make it easier after the surgery because you will have an idea on how your cycle runs thus being better able to pinpoint the time of ovulation.

Although two-thirds of the tubal ligation reversal patients at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center get pregnant within the first year it is important  to remember that everyone if different. Some women will get pregnant within a couples of months and for others it takes longer. Do not be discouraged if you do not get pregnant coming right out of the healing process.
