Tube tying is the only physical form of sterilization that is SOMEWHAT reversible. OTher forms that use implants, shots, or pills depend on the woman to be faithful in appointments yearly and responsible to take the pills, get the shots, or get new implants when necessary. Tube tying isn't even 100% effective as there is some risk of tubal pregnancy or the tubes not sealing completely. If the tubes are too thick to tie properly they have to cut them to be sure the sterilization will be effective. When the tubes are cut it reduces the possibility of reversal drastically. Tube tying can be reversed but it requires a surgery where the woman must be put under. There is sometimes too much scar tissue for things to go back functioning properly so it's not always worth the trouble. Insurance does not always pay for that type of procedure either.
