Many women who had gone through tubal ligation process may changed their minds and want to conceive yet again
. The most likely step they will go through is tubal reversal, a surgical process in which the tied ends of fallopian tubes are rejoined. Not all tubal ligation reversals are successful. The success of the surgery depends highly on the nature of the first surgery and the amount of damage inflicted on the tubes. If the tubes were heavily damage because of the tubal ligation surgery, the reversal process is not likely to serve its purpose. Many surgeons these days taking note of the increasing rate of tubal ligation reversal surgery take care to inflict minimum damage to the tubes.
If you want to conceive after having gone through such a reversal process, here are some tips to getting pregnant.
The first tip is that you should not rush to get pregnant soon after the surgery. This is because you should give time for your body to heal post tubal reversal surgery. Pregnancy also takes toll on you physically and mentally. So delay it for some time and give your body enough time to recover. Most women trying to conceive having gone through a reversal surgery are able to do so within 12 to 13 months. The bottom line is you should be patient. And if you are not able to conceive after the surgery, take the matter to your physician who may suggest a HSG procedure to check whether the surgery was successful or not. You should wait for at least a year before opting for this procedure.
Secondly, you should be aware of your ovulation cycles. Get to know when you ovulate and you can even get yourself an ovulation prediction kit.
Even after a successful bilateral tubal ligation , you should take care that miscarriage does not happen. This can be prevented when you track all things which are happening to your body as you try to get conceived. Miscarriages are a common occurrence with tubal ligation reversal patients and are disheartening, but you should maintain a positive outlook.
