Can a Woman Get Pregnant After Tubal Ligation

Life can take unexpected turns. For many women, choices made at one stage of life may not align with their desires in a new chapter. One such case is the decision to undergo tubal ligation (a permanent form of birth control) after having children in a first marriage — only to later desire another child after remarriage.

If you are in a similar situation, wondering if pregnancy is still possible, you’re not alone. Many women ask: 

“Can I get pregnant after tubal ligation?” “Is IVF my only option?” “Where can I find the best fertility clinic in Dubai that truly understands my case?”

In this guide, we’ll explore your options, what science says, emotional considerations, and how Best Life Fertility Clinic in Dubai can support you in this beautiful new journey

What is Tubal Ligation?

Tubal ligation, often referred to as “getting your tubes tied,” is a surgical procedure that blocks or seals the fallopian tubes to prevent eggs from reaching the uterus for fertilization. It’s considered a permanent form of contraception. Many women choose this procedure after completing their families. However, circumstances change — such as the loss of a partner or divorce — and new beginnings may spark a renewed desire for motherhood.

Second Chances in Life & Love

Let’s consider this real-life scenario:

A woman had two children during her first marriage. She chose to undergo tubal
ligation. Later, her marriage ended — either through divorce or the passing of her
spouse. After healing and finding love again, she marries a new partner who
doesn’t have children of his own. Now, the couple hopes to start a family together.


It’s a beautiful, hopeful vision. But is it medically possible?

Is Pregnancy Possible After Tubal Ligation?

The short answer is: Yes, but not naturally. Since the fallopian tubes are blocked, natural
conception is no longer possible. However, advancements in reproductive medicine offer two
primary options:

1. Tubal Ligation Reversal (Surgical)

● A microsurgical procedure that reconnects the fallopian tubes
● Suitable only if enough healthy tube remains
● Success rates vary depending on age, type of ligation, and overall fertility

2. In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

● The most reliable method post-tubal ligation
● Does not require functioning fallopian tubes
● Involves fertilizing the egg outside the body and implanting it into the uterus

IVF has become a life-changing solution for many women who once thought
motherhood was no longer possible.

Why IVF is the Better Choice for Most Women After Tubal
Ligation

While tubal reversal may sound like a straightforward fix, it’s not always the best option. Here’s
why IVF is often preferred:

CriteriaTubal ReversalIVF
Success Rate30–50% depending on case50–80% depending on age and clinic
Requires healthy tubes?YesNO
Time to pregnancyLongerFaster (once eggs are retrieved)
Risk of ectopic pregnancyHigherLower with embryo transfer control
Suitable after 35 years?Often notYes, with egg retrieval/freeze

Wanting a baby in a second marriage isn’t about erasing the past. It’s about building
something new with your partner. Many women hesitate, wondering:

● “Will others judge me?”
● “Is it selfish to want another child?”
● “What if it doesn’t work?”

These feelings are valid — but remember: You have the right to happiness, motherhood,
and love again. The key is to partner with the right fertility team that offers not just medical
solutions but empathy and support.

Overcoming Fears and Myths

Let’s bust a few common myths:

RealityMyth
Let’s bust a few common myths:IVF makes pregnancy possible
“I’m over 35, it’s too late.”Many women over 35–40 have successful IVF treatments.
“I’ve already had children; I shouldn’t want more.”You are allowed to desire new beginnings.
“My new husband may feel judged.”More couples today seek fertility support without stigma.
