I'm wondering if there's a good chance of getting pregnant after undoing a family planning operation. My sister is thinking about going through this and we're both a bit anxious about what to expect in terms of pregnancy possibilities. Can you give us some guidance on the likelihood of conceiving again?

Reversing a family planning operation, such as a tubal ligation, is possible for some women, but it's difficult, expensive, and often doesn't lead to pregnancy. The procedure is called a tubal reversal or tubal reanastomo.. Surgery to reverse sterilization is possible for only some womenthose who have enough fallopian tube left.The pregnancy rate following tubal ligation reversal varies from 50% to 80%.

I'm looking for some advice on an issue my spouse and I are facing. We've been married for six years and have a five-year-old daughter. We were apart for a while due to work, so we really haven't had regular penetrative sex in a bit. Now, when we're trying to get back into it, my spouse says she feels irritation in her vagina during penetration, even though we have a lot of foreplay and she's wet before we start. It's causing us to have trouble having intercourse. Should we be using a lubrication gel or is there any other remedy you'd suggest?

It sounds like your wife may be experiencing vaginal dryness or irritation. A good solution could be using a water-based lubricant like KY Jelly or Astroglide, which can help reduce friction and provide comfort during intercourse. If the issue persists, its best to consult a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation.
