Post tubal syndrome: Yes, many women experience shortening of their menstrual cycle frequency due to an interruption of a blood vessel that traverses under the Fallopian tube from the uterus. Cycles of 18 to 21 days often occur. Reversing a tubal can be expensive and if cut in more than one place, impossible. Insurance companies almost never will pay for the procedure.

Ivf is better: Pregnancy rates are better with ivf as not everyone is successful after tubal reanastamosis. Clinics charge different rates and some offer financing.
