There are many reasons to seek out a method of sterilization, not the least of which is the desire to not have to pay continued attention and money pursuing reliable methods of pregnancy avoidance. For women, tubal ligation is considered highly effective and is a relatively simple procedure. While it is sometimes possible to reverse a tubal ligation it's not done with the frequency of vasectomy reversals.

You had a tubal ligation, thinking you were done having children. But now life has changed and you want to have more. The good news is that reversal tubal ligation surgeries are available and it is possible to have a viable pregnancy after tubal ligation. In fact, about 60% of the women who have reversal tubal ligation procedures become pregnant within the first year. It's not an easy or inexpensive process, but it does give hope to those looking to conceive.
