Laparoscopic Tubal Recanalisation

At Eva IVF & Women’s Centre, we believe in second chances especially when it comes to motherhood. If you’ve undergone tubal ligation (commonly known as “getting your tubes tied”) and are now looking to conceive again, Laparoscopic Tubal Recanalisation could be your gateway back to natural fertility.

This advanced, minimally invasive surgery is designed to restore the continuity of your fallopian tubes, giving you the opportunity to conceive naturally after sterilization. Whether your life circumstances have changed or you’re planning a new family, we’re here to help you rewrite your reproductive storyβ€”with care, precision, and compassion.

What is Laparoscopic Tubal Recanalisation?

Tubal recanalisation is a surgical procedure aimed at reconnecting the previously cut, clipped, or tied fallopian tubes, allowing eggs and sperm to meet naturally. At Eva IVF, we perform this procedure using laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery, ensuring minimal pain, tiny incisions, and a quicker recovery.

Unlike IVF, which bypasses the fallopian tubes, this surgery restores your natural anatomyβ€”giving you the chance to conceive without medical assistance.

Who Should Consider This Procedure?

Who Should Consider This Procedure

Laparoscopic tubal recanalisation is ideal for:

βœ” Women who’ve had tubal ligation but now wish to conceive

βœ” Couples seeking natural pregnancy instead of assisted reproduction

βœ” Women with good ovarian function and healthy sperm parameters in their partner

βœ” Women under the age of 40 with no other major fertility issues

How is Tubal Recanalisation Performed?

1. Pre-Operative Assessment 2. The Laparoscopic Surgery 3. Recovery and Follow-Up

βœ” Detailed review of medical and surgical history

βœ” Pelvic ultrasound and fertility hormone tests

βœ” Semen analysis for the male partner

βœ” Imaging like HSG or HyCoSy (if needed) to assess tubal anatomy

βœ” Performed under general anesthesia

βœ” Small incisions (usually 3–4) are made in the abdomen

βœ” A laparoscope (camera) and surgical tools are inserted

βœ” The previously blocked ends of the fallopian tubes are identified, opened, and rejoined using microsurgical techniques

βœ” Patency (openness) is confirmed by flushing a dye through the tubes

βœ” Most women are discharged the same or next day

βœ” Return to work within 5–7 days

βœ” Conception can usually be attempted after 6–8 weeks

πŸ’‘ Precision is crucial. Our specialists use high-magnification optics to ensure accurate tube alignment and minimal scarring.
