The younger you are, the higher your chances of a successful pregnancy. At one private clinic in the USA, women up to the age of 30 had a 77% success rate after their reversal. For those between 35 and 39, this rate dropped to 62% and for those over 40, the success rate was only 34%.
In this particular study which involved 2,692 women, 1,783 got pregnant.

However the best way to find out is to seek a doctor not statistics!
