What Could Be The Best Cost Effective Option To Achieve Pregnancy With History Of Tubal Ligation?

My girlfriend had a tubal ligation done when she was young. We want to have a child but want to view all the other options... I admit I am confused as to if Artificial Insemination is the same thing as in virtro fertilization... if it's an option... or full tubal reversal is better...

can you tell me what the different methods for achieving pregnancy are, what they involve, and which one is the most cost effective?

Hi. Artificial insemination is different from In-Vitro fertilization (IVF). Full tubal reversal is a better option as the pregnancy will be a total natural process then. Sometimes it may fail. Then you can go for IVF. For cost -effectiveness your Gynecologist will be in a better position to tell you the exact costs and effects. They may vary from cetner to center
