If you've previously undergone tubal ligation and are now considering expanding your family, tubal ligation reversal offers a viable path to natural conception. At the Reproductive Fertility Center (RFC), led by Dr. Peyman Saadat, we specialize in assisting women in Beverly Hills and the greater Los Angeles area to restore their fertility through this procedure.
Understanding Tubal Ligation Reversal
Tubal ligation reversal is a surgical procedure that reconnects the fallopian tubes, allowing eggs to travel from the ovaries to the uterus, thereby restoring fertility. This procedure is ideal for women who have had their tubes tied but now wish to conceive naturally.
