I have my tubes tied and want to know if the procedure can be undone and what are the complications.

	Asked by Unregistered (Female; 42 ) on Wed 16, Jul 2008 10:06am :
	I had my tubes tied about 2 years ago and was wondering if the procedure can be undone? I have been divorced and recently engaged and my future husband would like to have a child. I am 42 years old and am afraid of complications.

	Answer by Dr Noopur S, MD (doctor) on Fri 18, Jul 2008 06:43am: Hi, Yes there are good chances of pregnancy after reversal of tubal ligation especially if the reversal is done surgically. Although there is a risk of ectopic pregnancy. Please discuss these issues with your OBGYN and keep us posted!
