I’m going to use this post as a place to collect questions about either tubal reversal or vasectomy reversal. Below you will find a place where you can add a comment. That’s where to put your question. In fact, I am thinking of making this post the only place where comments can be added simply for ease of administration.
Now there are some ground rules and some caveats.
Asking About Free Reversals
First off, as much as I would love to be able to help everyone, I cannot tell you where to get a free sterilization reversal. Don’t ask.
I have written a post about the possibility of finding some ministry that can help with this but they usually have some religious restrictions and you may find you still have to put up some money.
Personally, while I understand that things are tight nowadays, and that for some people things will always be tight, I don’t know why anyone should think they should get such a specialized surgical procedure for free. Doctors that specialize in these operations spent lots of time and money achieving their skills. Why do you think one should give more time and money away because you have had a change of heart about something you did to yourself? And, yes, I include money as each doctor would still have to pay staff, drug costs, and facility costs among other things.
While this might seem harsh, just think if your boss wanted you to work and get paid nothing. (That does assume you are not a stay at home mom or dad who does not get paid anything for all the important work you do.) You wouldn’t like that, would you? Having a husband who does have to give hours to his company for nothing, I get very upset by this opinion taken from either viewpoint.
If you find such a generous soul you are blessed indeed. Treasure that doctor.
However, don’t be surprised if you still find you have to pay the staff fees, the facility fees, the drug costs, and anything else. If you find a doctor like this, he is probably just waiving his own personal fees. I have found one such doctor once and it was a one time thing.
So don’t ask where you can find a free tubal reversal or free vasectomy reversal. I don’t have an answer and even if I did, it might change before I could even post it.
Comments Are Moderated
Secondly, all comments will be moderated. This is my way to catch spam comments and there are lots of them on the Internet. What this means to you is don’t add comments that say something along the lines of “Nice post. I’m going to bookmark this and send all my friends here.” as that is a common type of spam comment. I will not allow it to be posted.
Asking About Reversal Doctors in Your Area
While I know a few doctors who work in the sterilization reversal fields, I sure don’t know every doctor around the world who might perform such a surgery whether they are skilled in it or not. So don’t ask about finding a doctor in your local region.
Now if you want to ask about Dr. X, whoever that might be, go ahead and maybe someone else will see and can provide an answer.
Enough Questions on the Same Topic Equals a New Article
If enough similar questions come in I will try to find the answer and create a post on the topic. Hopefully that will aid a few people seeking help.
That is essentially what I am using this particular post for – to collect questions that I can provide the answers for in another article added to this site. So what do you want to know about tubal reversal or vasectomy reversal? Is it about the surgery itself and what happens? Is it about what to expect after the surgery either right away or as time goes on? Do you need ideas as to how to get financing for your reversal? Add your question in the comments below.
What Do You Want to Know?
Lastly, I have a question for you. Is there anything you want to see added to this site that is not about sterilization reversal? What I’m getting at is that the reason you want a reversal is so you can have a child. Is there anything associated with having kids that you would like to see added to the site? Or what?

Tubal Reversal Financing – Ways to Raise the Money
When deciding to pursue a sterilization reversal, the first roadblock many women run into is tubal reversal financing. If you don’t have a lot of cash on hand, just how do you go about financing tubal ligation reversal? After all, even finding a low cost surgeon, and there are a couple surgeons who are great and available at a low cost respective to the average, can still run you a few thousand. So let’s look real quick at a few ways that you can go about financing tubal ligation reversal today and we’ll take a look at a few more later this week.
First Tubal Reversal Financing Method – Saving for Your Tubal Ligation Reversal
Perhaps the best way is to simply save for your tubal reversal surgery. Not very glamorous or quick but it can be sure. However, I would highly suggest a separate savings account for your tubal reversal separate from your family savings account as a means of financing tubal ligation reversal. Why? Because it becomes too easy to mix up the money that has been set aside for your surgery and whatever you have a savings account for in the first place.
Second Tubal Reversal Financing Method – A Second Job and Counting Your Pennies
Another method can be getting a job or a second job. Take whatever you make from this job and place it into your tubal reversal savings account. Maybe you will need to use some of the income just to finance having the job such as paying for your gas to get to work or buying the clothes you need to wear to work.
But anything that is left over from those expenses must go into your special sterilization reversal account. You will also have to be wary of spending any of this income on incidentals and luxuries such as a latte every day or eating out. An alternative to having to spend any of the income on gas and work clothes would be finding some type of work you could do at home and maybe online.
Third Method – Tubal Reversal Payment Plan
One variation on the savings account would be to look for a reversal surgeon who supplies a savings account at his office. Usually this will be called a tubal reversal payment plan and it works like a lay away plan. You just set up an account and send in a certain amount whenever you can. If you find an office that will do this, there will usually be a minimum amount required to set up the payment plan that is not refundable. That will pay for the bookkeeping they have to do.
This can be a great way of tubal reversal financing as it gets the money out of your hands where you can’t easily get at it for those little things that always seem to come up. I like this even better than a savings account. The Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center is one such office that will allow you to set up a payment plan for $250, not to mention they have one of the most affordable tubal reversal surgeries available with the best doctors.

Why Go Through Sterilization Reversal?
First you need to understand that sterilization is done through a vasectomy for men or tubal ligation for women. This is done to prevent pregnancy from happening for whatever reason. A sterilization reversal, then, is either a reversal done by nature, so to speak, or the reversal procedure conducted by a doctor at the request of the person who underwent the original sterilization.
Marital Status Affects Sterilization Reversal
If someone has gone through the surgery required to prevent pregnancies, why would you want to go through a sterilization reversal surgery? For many people, the reason is as simple, or as difficult, as a change in marital status.
With the American divorce rate standing at 50%, it is quite likely that a person who has been through the vasectomy or tubal ligation will not be with the same partner a few years after the original surgery was conducted. Alternatively, one’s present spouse may die and, over time, the remaining partner could remarry. Of course, this change in partners may precipitate a desire for children.
Other Factors Affecting Why You Would Want a Sterilization Reversal
Additionally, there are other reasons one might want to undergo a sterilization reversal. As sad as it is to even think of it, there could be the death of a present child or children. The news seems all too full of such sad stories. .
A few other factors which might cause the thought of sterilization reversal have to do with a change in religious beliefs or trying to regain a sense of masculinity or fertility. Maybe there has been a change in opinions on the size of the family.
Believe it or not, conflict within the family could lead to this costly reversal surgery. For instance, in families where the partners were having substantial conflict prior to the male’s vasectomy, the wife was twenty-five times more likely to request a vasectomy reversal than those whose marriages did not have such “substantial conflict”. Researchers neglected to determine whether this substantial conflict had to do with the sterilization or not.
Just goes to show, you need to be sure you want the original surgery in the first place. Think long and hard about it. However, should you have gone through either procedure to become sterilized and then change your mind, a sterilization reversal, whether through a tubal reversal or vasectomy reversal, is a possibility.
