Patient's question:
Teacher, I am 42 years old this year. I used to have a tubal ligation surgery, which has been 13 years. Last year, I wanted another child, so I had a tubal reversal surgery. However, after more than a year, I still haven't seen any signs of pregnancy.Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, the chances of getting pregnant again should be relatively low. Tubal anastomosis surgery is a relatively delicate procedure, and generally, the chances of getting pregnant within the first year after the surgery are higher. Below one year, the anastomotic site may potentially re-form scar adhesions that block the fallopian tubes. Of course, at your age, you may also experience ovarian function decline. You can check your sex hormones, evaluate your ovarian function, and have a hysterosalpingogram to assess the patency of your fallopian tubes.
