If a male sperm cell fuses up with an egg, pregnancy may result. If the tubes are closed, or “tied,” sperm cannot fertilize an egg, and will not take place, tubal reversal.Tubal ligation is done in the hospital while on anesthesia. The doctor will make 1 or 2 small incisions in your belly region, usually near the bellybutton.
