1. Female sterilization

Female sterilization, a type of tubal sterilization, also known as tubal ligation, is a simple to operate, safe and effective sterilization method with few side effects. The development of this operation has a history of more than a hundred years and is also one of the most commonly used contraceptive methods for women in developed countries.

If you still accidentally get pregnant after having a vasectomy, you should go to the hospital to check whether it is an intrauterine pregnancy. It's better not to have this baby. It is best to have an abortion as early as possible. The best time to have an abortion is in the 40th to 50th day of pregnancy.

3. Why can you still get pregnant after vasectomy?

Although pregnancy after vasectomy is not a normal situation, there are still some cases. This is because no surgery has a 100% success rate.

If the vasectomy is not done tightly or is unsuccessful, it may cause women to become pregnant after the operation.
