National Infertility Awareness Week | Affordable Treatment for Tied Tubes

National Infertility Awareness Week (October 19-25th) brings to mind the expense of advanced infertility treatments, often in the tens of thousands of dollars. During this time of economic uncertainty, this is bad news for most couples who desperately want to have children but require medical treatment to do so. There is one bright ray of light, though, and that is the topic of this article – affordable treatment for tied tubes. This is a problem that hundreds of thousands of women face when they regret that their decision to have their tubes tied. Even though the percentage of women who regret having a tubal ligation is low, the actual numbers are high because over 10 million women have had a tubal ligation in the US.

If you done any research online, you have probably learned that tubal reversals can cost as much as $30,000 when the doctors and hospital bills are all included in the price.

For an affordable tubal reversal in the best price range quoted above, you may have read about Dr. Gary Berger and Dr. Charles Monteith at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. They are the world’s leading tubal reversal doctors, yet they offer the surgery for under $6000 as an all-inclusive fee that covers everything. Do your own research to learn for yourself about the reknown tubal reversal facility in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

One of the main obstacles for most couples wanting children after a tubal ligation has been performed is that most insurance companies do not consider this to be an elective procedure that is not “medically necessary”. That is true also of the alternative treatment, in vitro fertilization or IVF, which is even more expensive and less successful for most couples than having the tubes untied.

If you need some form of financing to afford having the operation, there are companies that do finance medical treatments. The one that Dr. Berger’s clinic uses is Medical Resource Partners. You can also choose a pre-payment plan at Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center. These options help many couples to start or expand their family.

This plan allows you to save up the total tubal reversal cost in any increments you can afford and over how ever long it takes before scheduling your procedure for reversing tied tubes. If you wait till you have the full amount saved to make the appointment, you can get an even lower price.

You will find a very affordable tubal reversal by visiting Dr. Berger’s resources at http://www.tubal-reversal.net/ Even if you do not use available financing you get the world’s best tubal reversal doctors at a very good price.

Due Date: 03-29-09
Remarks: Hello–I had my TR for PTLS. We were not actively trying to conceive and I had actually undergone surgery for a procedure and was apparently a few days pregnant at the time. Oops! When I found out I was pregnant the beginning of August I went in that day for Hcg draws and repeated that three more times.

I also had two ultrasounds with the first showing a sac at 6w2d. I had a second ultrasound at 7w5d and we saw the baby with the heartbeat. I went in today for a regular checkup with my OB doctor and the heartbeat was heard via doppler and she did an in-office ultrasound where we saw the baby kicking and the heartbeat again. I will be 12 weeks on Sunday. While this wasn’t a planned pregnancy it is slowly growing on me and I am more happy/relieved reaching this many weeks and having no complications and then again today seeing the baby/heartbeat. Just thought I’d fill you guys in! Take care!

Remarks: Hey you guys! Just wanted to up date you… I am 35 weeks pregnant with our TR son. I have been on meds to stop pre-mature labor which started on 9/18/2008. It has worked. We are still hanging in there! I actually went a couple weeks ago and had 3D-4D ultrasound photos taken of the baby and boy is he fat. He is not only a miracle performed through Dr. Berger but a healthy miracle. By doc’s opinion we are looking at a 9.5 pounder lil fellow easily. So, again… thanks to all of you and keep up the good work. As long as you guys continue to be obedient in the miracles God uses you for, you will continue to be blessed.

I will continue to keep you guys in my prayers asking God to continue to use you all for his works and to continue to bless all of you!!!! Thanks! I hope to be sending you guys pictures of the new Berger Baby shortly.

Remarks: I just went to Doctor today to make an appt. because I was told once I get a positive test make one and don’t wait since there is a chance for tubal pregnancy. The nurse gave me a very had time saying they can’t do anything for me until I’m 8 weeks. I did get my blood work done today. The level was 38. She said it was too early to tell. I go back Wednesday. I asked her after that do I go back in two days? She said “no” but I read that I need to get blood work done until I reach 1500, right? What can I do about this? Can you right a letter or just tell me what to do because I don’t know and I’m scared if I don’t get the care that I need. The nurse is giving me a hard time - not my Doctor, I didn’t get to talk to her yet. Thank You in advance.
