Ligation of fallopian tubes

Women's sterilization is called voluntary surgical contraception. This is a 100% effective method of preventing pregnancy, which means the ligation of the fallopian tubes and thus creating their artificial obstruction.

In the fair sex, sterilization is a constant method of contraception, which is performed by a surgeon. The only purpose of such an operation is to make the fallopian tubes impassable . Here it is necessary to understand that when deciding on such an operation, a woman will never have the opportunity to become pregnant.

To make this procedure use these technologies:

- tie up the pipes;

- cross them;

- To excise;

- cork;

- clamp using special clamps.

The effectiveness of such contraception is that the spermatozoa will not have a chance to meet the egg, and hence fertilize it.

It is worth noting that this method of preventing pregnancy differs from all others. And what is noteworthy, causes a very ambiguous attitude to him not only doctors, but also women themselves. The whole point is that the consequences of such contraception are irreversible, that is, for the whole life the opportunity to conceive and give birth to a child is eliminated. This function is not subject to recovery.

An interesting fact: the history of medicine knows cases when even after the ligation of the fallopian tubes, the woman becomes pregnant. But, unfortunately, there are so few such moments that it is simply meaningless to count on such an outcome of events. In addition, such micro-operations are very complex, so it is very unlikely that you will become an exception and will be able to conceive a baby.

But it is also worth noting that in medicine there are situations when the ligation of the fallopian tubes is just a necessary tool. Usually this is due to those disorders and diseases in which the birth of a child is incredibly dangerous for the health and life of a woman. And when the use of the most reliable contraceptives (intrauterine or hormonal) leads to a health risk or is simply contraindicated.

In this case, the ligation of the fallopian tubes comes to the rescue - voluntary sterilization by surgical means. After it, a woman gets the opportunity to have a full sexual life, not being afraid to get pregnant and get possible negative consequences for her own health.

The ligation of the fallopian tubes is done only for women who have reached the senior reproductive age, that is, 35 years old, who already have at least one child and do not want any more babies in the future. It is necessary that the uterine tubes must be checked.

At consultation the doctor necessarily will analyze a state of health of the patient and that, how much its family relations are stable . Such strict measures are necessary because often women with a hope to restore the ability to conceive turn to women who created a new family or lost their child.

In addition to all this, sterilization has its own legal side. Therefore, before deciding on such an operation, a woman must sign some documents stating that she officially confirms her consent. Yes, perhaps this procedure is too bureaucratic, but thanks to it there is still time to think it over again. It is worth noting that in practice there was a change in the decision at the very last moment.

To date, contraceptives (with proper application and combination) give almost one hundred percent effect. Therefore, consider the possibility of ligation of the fallopian tubes only if there are absolute indications to this procedure.
