If you had a tubal ligation in the past but now wish to become pregnant, you’re not out of options. At Conceive Fertility Center in Dallas–Fort Worth, TX, we offer advanced tubal reversal surgery—a minimally invasive procedure to reconnect your fallopian tubes and restore your chance at natural conception.
What Is Tubal Reversal?
Tubal reversal (also known as tubal ligation reversal) is a surgical procedure that repairs or re-opens the fallopian tubes which were previously blocked or cut. Because fertilization normally happens when an egg meets sperm in the tube, restoring this pathway can allow you to conceive naturally. Cleveland Clinic+1
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may be a candidate for tubal reversal if:
- You’ve had your tubes tied but would now like to become pregnant
- You still have a healthy uterus and at least part of both fallopian tubes remaining
- Your partner has normal sperm parameters
- You’re younger with preserved fertility (younger age improves success rates)
- You prefer natural conception over assisted methods
How Does the Procedure Work?
- Consultation & Evaluation – review your previous tubal ligation record, fertility testing (your ovarian reserve and partner’s sperm count).
- Surgical Repair – Using minimally invasive techniques (bikini incision or laparoscopic), the surgeon reconnects fallopian tubes and removes scar tissue. Conceive Fertility+1
- Recovery – Usually outpatient or short hospital stay. Many patients resume normal activity within 1-2 weeks.
- Trying for Pregnancy – After recovery, you may begin trying naturally; your physician will monitor for tube patency and early pregnancy.
Success Rates & Considerations
Pregnancy rates vary from about 50–70% or more depending on age, type of previous tubal ligation, and tube length remaining. Dallas Fertility+1
Risks include:
- Slightly higher chance of ectopic pregnancy (implantation in the tube) which must be monitored. Shady Grove Fertility
