Tubal Reversal Surgery

Dear Ask The Doctor: Hi my name is kim in 2001 while having a c secton i had my tube tied for all the wrong reasons i have now remarried and want to have a baby with my husband more than anything im 36 and im 5"1 and weigh 270lbs is it possible for me to have a tubal reversal thank you for your time

Dear Kim: Tubal reversal is possible. However, it has a very high failure rate! It essentially involves locateing the "tied" tubes and reconnecting them. Restoration of the tubes does not garauntee fertility.
