If you are thinking that tubal surgery is used only to reverse tied tubes, you might be surprised to know that tubal ligation is not the only cause of tubal blockage. Indeed, tubal surgery can be the solution to restoring fertility to women with tubal blockage caused by other means.

Although many women voluntarily undergo sterilization each year, it is not the only cause of blocked tubes. In fact, the leading cause of infertility is pelvic inflammatory disease. Whatever might cause an episode (which will be covered in a later article), the outcomes of this disease can be the inner walls of your fallopian tubes becoming adhered to each other closing off the passage, abscesses forming in your tubes, or by scars forming within the tube which essentially keeps an egg from passing to the uterus.

You will, of course, have to talk to your doctor and have the proper testing done to find the cause of your infertility. If it is the result of an infection like pelvic inflammatory disease, then you will be given antibiotics to take care of the situation.

While antibiotics are used to fight the infection, they can do little for the damage that may have been done. If tubal blockage has been the result of an infection, or chronic infections, then you have two choices for meeting the resultant infertility if that happens.

What you can do is go through IVF or have tubal surgery. With IVF, you are faced with an expensive procedure that really messes up your body. Yes, it is in a good cause. But, on average, you will have to go through three cycles to get pregnant, paying for each. And, then, if you want another child, you have to go through it yet again.

With tubal surgery, it's different. Once you have recovered from the surgery, usually within a very few weeks, you get to try as often as you want to conceive. Have the first child and then try again. All with no additional surgical cost.

Everyone always wants to know their chances of getting pregnant after tubal surgery. You can find out here, http://news.tubal-reversal.net/pregnancy-study-2007-pregnancy_rates.htm, in the results of a 2007 study of women who had tubal surgery at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. While age is the biggest reason behind the lower chances of getting pregnant, since most PID sufferers are under 25, you shouldn't be a big factor for you. But you can see, even so, many women still do get pregnant after tubal surgery for tubal blockage.

Hopefully, this article has provided you with information to help you with your decision about tubal blockage. Tubal surgery is a very viable option and could very well be the best way for you to overcome your infertility.
