Does anyone know of a way to get help with a tubal reversal?

Answers:
You need to see a specialist. It involves very precise surgery and may not be possible in all cases--depending on the type of surgery and how it healed.

If you do have reversal surgery, you are at increased risk for a tubal pregnancy. If you think you may be pregnant, you should see your midwife or doctor.

Hi,
Do you mean to get help paying for it because your insurance doesn't cover it? If that is what you are asking and your Gynecologist performs the procedure, then you can ask him/her about making some type of payment arrangements.

Otherwise, you can contact some Gynecologists (try to make sure they are board-certified, FACOG, and that they are good surgeons), in your area and talk to the office manager about doing a cash arrangement for payment of the procedure. Maybe they would be willing to put you on a payment plan. Don't feel embarrassed, this is done all the time. Doctors and hospitals call it "cash pay" and there is no harm in asking.

Then you will have to do the same thing with the hospital or surgical center and the anesthesiologist: but the gynecologist should be able to help you with that.

Good luck to you and, like I said, don't feel embarrassed, many people are having this procedure now and doctors understand that insurance usually doesn't cover it.

Take care...

This depends on whether you live in Canada or United States. No, wait a minute, it does not. In both countries, they do charge you a pretty penny. Probably a bit more in the states. My ex-sister-in-law had it done, but they had no success. But that's just because her daughter got pregnant at the same time that they were trying.
Okay, the first thing you have to do is get a referral from your Doctor to a fertility specialist. He will explain the procedure to you. You will have to have surgery, provided your tubes have been clipped and not cut. If they have been cut, there is virtually no hope, unless they figured something out lately. If you tubes have been clipped, all they do is remove the clip, but depending on how long the clip has been on, there will some scar tissue in the way making it difficult to conceive. Ask your fertility Doctor if he has ever heard of "blowing out your tubes". I have heard of that being done. Good Luck and I hope everything turns out the way you want. GOD BLESS!
