    Tubal ligation reversal surgery is very cheap in India. There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges surgery for foreigners in India. They are called the Fly2india4health Consultants. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. I have also read that they arrange financing for international patients, as all surgery is not covered by insurance or by the stinking NHS.

    They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. The cost savings are incredible. As a doctor I personally believe that your surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of Healthcare available here is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

    My cousin got her IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment; IUI surgery done there and she is more than very happy with the results. She is all praise for Fly2india4health Consultants. She paid just 20% of the cost what she was quoted in USA and it was like a wonderful vacation for her. Hope this helps

    It can be done surgically, but it depends on how your tubes were tied. Also, the success of the reversal depends on how much of your tubes were removed in the process--there has to be enough fallopian tube left for the fertilized egg to travel through for enough days before implantation.

    Keep in mind, also, that women who've had their tubes tied and reversed are at a greater risk for ectopic pregnancy.

    On the brighter side of things, two of my coworkers had tubal reversal procedures that were successful. They both conceived within 6 months of the procedure.

    tubal ligation is the permanent type of contraception.....it is not reversible...but still chances of recanalisation are there though very rare

    It depends on the method used. Best to call your physician that did the procedure.

    sometimes the tubes are seared closed and sometimes they are tied (tying is reversible I believe)

    Good luck

    Most of the time it isn't. But, sometimes the tubes wound up untied and you still could have a baby that way.

    Yes, but it would probably be very difficult operation and difficult to conceive.

    I would ask my doctor.
