General & Family Physician Dr. P. Mahesh's  Response
Hi Rahini,
Welcme to HCM.
Invitro fertilisation and Embryo Transfer (IVF-ET) is the treatment of choice in case of bilateral tubal block.
The success rate in the best centres is approximately 50 %. Thyroid complications may further reduce the success rate.
Since this is the best option available if your husband's sperm count is within normal limits, there is no point in worrying about the success rate. If there are more than one choice to select from, then considering the success rate of each of the procedure is certainly recommended.
Wish you all the Best.
