pregnancy after tubal

[Flaca03]

I am a 31 year old mother of three.  I had a tubal in 2000 after child #3 and my husband and i want to have a nother one now.  We want to get it done before i turn 35 which would make him 38 because of the chances of down syndrome among others.  I wanted to know if there were any procedures that could be done other than getting a reversal.  I don't know maybe bypass the tubes. That wouldn't result in ectopic Help Please

Is your current doctor the same doctor that performed the tubal??  I've never had one done but have heard that sometimes they leave enough of the tubes incase someone wants a reversal.  With some research, the doctor should be able to determine if there is any tube left.  If not, then I'd say the same as njeosys said about the artificial insemination.

The only thing I could think of is to have a doctor artificially inseminate you with your husband's sperm. I've heard it can cost around $300 or so, depending on where you live and the doctor who does it.
