A patient on the Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center message board posts the results of her HCG levels and ultrasound exam. Members of the message board as well as staff members from Dr. Berger's office encourage her to follow the early pregnancy protocol that Dr. Berger recommends his patients follow once they have a positive pregnancy test. Not only does Dr. Berger give out very detailed information regarding tubal reversal surgery, he also educates his patients about early pregnancy monitoring once they get a positive pregnancy test so that they can determine at the earliest point where the pregnancy is located. Dr. Berger's care and devotion to his patients is just one reason that women from all over the US and other countries choose to have him perform their tubal reversal procedure.

Posted by khadija (Member # 7447) on January 10, 2008 02:48 PM: Ok this is not for me but for a close friend. She was PG but lost the baby after 8 weeks. A month later she was PG again. When her #s were around 9,000 US was done. Nothing showed up in the tube or in the U. She has not felt any pain. 1st US with the #s 9000 was done 12-28-07 about 2 weeks ago. She saw no blood or anything, went to DR 2 days ago and #s are now over 33,000. still no pain. No US was done. Is it possible that it could be in the tube or since no pain can it be in the U. Thanks and I hope you all are doing very well.
Posted by berta8133 (Member # 11188) on January 10, 2008 03:17 PM: Everything would be a guess and not quite the way to go...i would say they need to do another u/s. Posted by Rhonda Brown, RN (Member # 9485) on January 10, 2008 03:22 PM: It is highly recommed that immediate follow up with the physician be done today ASAP. Generally a pregnancy can be seen on ultrasound with HCG levels of 1500-2000. Please let us know how things go today. RhondaB@tubal-reversal.net
Posted by in-Gods-hands (Member # 11795) on January 10, 2008 03:24 PM: What kind of US did they do? I would think if the could not see anything with the normal US they would have done a vaginal US. To make sure everything is fine.
Posted by Sarah Meacham, RN (Member # 9766) on January 10, 2008 04:02 PM: Please go see your doctor immediately - you need follow-up to find out where your pregnancy is located as soon as possible.

Posted by khadija (Member # 7447) on January 11, 2008 12:50 PM: OK first thank all of you. From what I read on the papers from the DR, it said that the PG would end on its own. just give it time. For over 2 weeks now she has been very sad waiting on it to happen. I told her to go see my DR yesterday. They saw her right away. Did US and saw the baby and the heatbeat. Told her she was 8 weeks and some odd days PG. She could not believe it. She is so happy now but still in shock. I have never heard of this. She also has been taking MEDS from the DR for 2 weeks now and is worried they could have messed something up. She is going back in for more check-ups to insure her everything is OK. Thank you all so much. As for me I am now little over 20 weeks PG with TR# 3. All is well. I do not feel tired or even feel PG. I have still not felt the baby move but it is moving just fine on US. DR said not to worry it may take a little longer. I wish you all the very best and sending baby dust to all.
Posted by in-Gods-hands (Member # 11795) on January 11, 2008 01:09 PM: I am gald your friend went to your doctor. I am happy to hear you and that baby are doing well also. I bet your friend could have fell in the floor after the doctor fought the baby. Tell her prayers are coming her way. Have a great day.

Tubal Reversal For Women Who Regret Having Their Tubes Tied
Many women that come to Dr. Berger for their tubal reversal procedure often state that the reason for having the surgery is that they have regretted having their tubes tied in the first place. It is our mission that tubal reversal surgery with Dr. Berger will restore hope, fertility, and the opportunity to have children for 800 more couples, as we have done each year in the past. The Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center message board offers women a chance to see that they are not alone in their feelings and desire for the tubal reversal procedure.
Tubal Reversal Discussion on the Tubal Reversal Message Board:
A new Tubal Reversal Message Board member says, "Hi everyone. My name is Kate and I had my TL in 2004 after my second son. I regretted it from that day. I would like to get a tubal reversal but my doctor said because they were burned, cut, and tied that it was probably not likely to have them repaired. She actually referred me to an In vitro clinic. I'm just checking out my options right now after coming across this site." Kate receives many responses from other message board members about the advantages of tubal reversal and assurance that the fallopian tubes can be repaired by Dr. Berger even after they have been tied, cut and burned. It is apparent that many people, including doctors, mistakenly believe that tubal ligation is permanent and cannot be reversed. In fact, the rate of successful reversal is over 90% among Dr. Berger's tubal reversal patients.

Hi everyone. My name is Kate and I had my TL in 2004 after my second son...I regreted it from that day. I would like to get a TR but Im kind of sceptical about it. My doctor said because they were burned, cut, and tied that it was probably not likely to have them repaired. She actually refered me to an Invitro dr....anyway, Im just checking out my options right now and I came across this site....I guess we'll see. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I had that procedure Kate, and ended up with tubes of okay lengths! Dr. B is the best! I just had TR in November, so I can't report a BFP yet, but I'm hoping! Good luck in your decision- Traci

Kate,
Send your operative reports to Dr.B and you will be able to find out if you are a good candidate for surgery.The type of TL that you have had has a lot of successful pregnancies.(on the weekly pregnancy lists) The great thing about TR is that you can try every month without the expense of IVF.

Kate I hope you all the best. My doctor told me about going to Dr. Berger for my TR because of the way he did my TL. So look into everything before you say a door is closed. Dr.Berger said that he could do my TR so now we are working to getting on done in March of 2008.
Posted by LAG (Member # 7053) on December 29, 2007 05:34 PM:
Hi Kate, I had the same thing done (called a modified pomeroy). I got a BFP two months after TR but it ended in miscarriage at 10 weeks due to chromosomal abnormality. I have had a long year since then and haven't been able to try the whole time, but I am currently 5 weeks pregnant as of tomorrow. I ended up with 7cm on each side. Dr. Berger is very good at what he does. I would rather know I have a shot each and every month than pay $10,000 for a gamble per month, not to mention the toll on your body from all the fertility drugs and trauma to your ovaries.
God Bless and good luck!

Hello again,
I have a second question.....I have not cycled in 7 months ( my TL was in 2004) and Im wondering if this would affect my chances of a successful TR or if this is even something to worry about. My gyn dr say that it is just from stress....trust me, I have a 3 yr old and a 4 yr old but I am not that stressed....what does everyone else think about this? She wanted to give me Depo to make my body cycle but I refused....any comments? [Confused]
Posted by in-Gods-hands (Member # 11795) on December 29, 2007 09:27 PM:
After my TL my cycle messed all up. It has not been normal after the TL. I did the shot no help and then did pills for away and still no help. Could be stress that does happen but the foods you are eating could too. If you are not taking in everything your body needs your cycle could stop. Pray about it and hang in there cause some times it helps to know your not alone. I went all most 7 months was the longs for me.
Posted by cnrstepp (Member # 11810) on January 01, 2008 09:27 AM:
Hi! My cycle has been all off whack since my TL, too. I have more painful periods now than ever before. I am hoping that things will even out once I have my TR.
I have heard wonderful things about Dr. Berger and his staff. If anyone can give you a chance, it will be them!!
