Dr. Gary Berger is the only doctor with published data regarding outcomes following reversal surgery.

Most Internet sites about tubal reversal do not provide any factual data at all. Any doctor may say that his patients have a particular success rate, but supporting the claim with actual data involves considerable effort. At Chapel Hill Tubal Reversal Center, we publish the results of our follow-up study yearly, reflecting surgical and pregnancy outcomes. This is the most comprehensive study done to date of tubal reversal surgery and its resulting outcomes, showing that for the majority of women who have undergone a tubal ligation procedure and decide later they would like to have more children, tubal reversal surgery is a better option than in vitro fertilization (IVF).

One question that we are commonly asked is whether Dr. Berger uses the dye technique or a stent to ensure the tubes are open following tubal reversal surgery. The use of the dye technique is not the most accurate indicator regarding whether the tubes are open following tubal repair to allow conception. The stent technique is the better approach in our opinion to avoid any doubt. The stent is sterile and does not pass through the cervix.
