Technically you can get tubal ligation done. But then you are robbed of motherhood. To be a mother or father is one of the best asset you can have in your life.
Tubal reversal success depends on two main factors: type or tubal ligation and the age of the woman at the time of tubal reversal surgery. The tubal reversal success rate can be as high as 80% for women who are under the age of 30 and also for women who have had tubal clip or tubal ring type tubal ligations. The tubal reversal success can also be as high as 30-50% for women over the age of 40 or those who have had unknown types of tubal ligations. Even among women over the age of 40 or women with unknown types of tubal ligations approximately 1 out of 3 women will become pregnant.
I live in Australia and was 24 when I had my Tubal Ligation and i was happy at the time but after a few years, i regretted it. I had only 2 children at the time. I recently got my tubes reversed and am hoping for another baby soon. Reversal is expensive so your best off using other forms of contraception so you have the choice to change your mind later on.
