Pregnancies Occur With All Tubal Lengths Following Tubal Reversal

Dr. Berger detailed statistics on all of his tubal reversal patients include tubal length, age of patient, and type of tubal ligation. Dr. Berger’s patients have had successful pregnancies with all different tubal lengths following tubal reversal surgery. Weekly Pregnancy Reports document the varying ages, types of tubal ligation, and tubal lengths that have led to pregnancies. There is no minimal tubal length required to conceive a healthy pregnancy following tubal reversal surgery.

This is topic Short Tubes in forum After Tubal Reversal at Tubal Reversal Message Board.

Is 4.5 on right and 3.5 on left tube lengths bad? The doctor I went to acts like it's hopeless being able to get preg. with this

One lady about 2 weeks ago was age 42 (I think) and she only had 1 tube with was 3 cm...

Anything is possible in God's hands...but woman here are getting pregnant all the time with tubes your length and shorter...

I personally have 3.5 and the left and 5 on the right, so I;m in the same boat PLUS I am 35 years old.. I test to see if I am pregnant this Monday, I am hopeful!

babydean,
We see pregnancies with all different tubal lengths. It may make you feel better to view the Weekly Pregnancy Reports and see all the pregnancies with tubes similar to yours!

Babydean,
As long as your tubes are open you have a good chance to get pregnant! 4.5 is a nice decent length I think. I have 5 on each and have a tr baby. Alot of Dr's don't see too many of us tr patients and are skeptical. My Dr. freaked out when I came in with my +.

GL,
Amy

Babydean - It's Marissa from the March 07 thread....I only have one tube and it's 4cm and Dr.B actually implanted the tube into my uterus as there was nothing left to put back together so to speak....and I'm currently 18 weeks and 1 day pg. So not only am I a short tuber but I'm a one tuber and it happened for me.
