Tubes not just tied: Tubes aren't just tied. They are severed. The ends are burned and scarred closed. The tubes are then clamped or repeatedly tied to close off and a scar the internal lining. Reversing that is nearly impossible.

Webmd: Tubal ligation is surgery to close or block a woman's Fallopian tubes so eggs released from the ovaries cannot enter the uterus and sperm cannot reach the egg. Tubal ligation reversal is surgery to reopen, untie, or reconnect a woman's fallopian tubes so she can become pregnant.
