Can I get a vasectomy directly after a cesarean section?

If a couple does not want children, one of them can undergo a sterilization, while women mainly use some techniques to tie the fallopian tubes. However, due to the high failure rate of sterilization surgery and the high risk of the surgery, many women choose to have sterilization done during their cesarean section because this allows doctors to perform the sterilization surgery better. But is it really possible to perform a ligation directly during a caesarean section?

After a cesarean section, if a woman does not want to get pregnant again, she can undergo contraceptive sterilization and IUD placement. These are both commonly used methods of contraception, and the specific method to choose depends on the woman's physical condition. In terms of damage to the body, sterilization requires surgery, which will cause damage to the abdominal cavity. However, the disadvantage of having an IUD is that contraception can easily fail, the IUD may fall off, and odor may occur. However, many women will have a vasectomy done at the same time as a caesarean section. Although this reduces the risk of the operation, it can also easily cause harm to the body. It is best to think twice before choosing to have the operation.

Doctors in regular large hospitals do not recommend that women undergo sterilization surgery at the same time as a caesarean section. You should wait more than half a year after a caesarean section before considering a vasectomy. After all, a caesarean section causes considerable damage to the uterine cavity and ovaries. If you consider a vasectomy under this circumstance, the operation will be too early, the risk will be relatively high, and it will easily affect the caesarean section wound of women. Therefore, cesarean section and ligation are not recommended at the same time. If a woman considers her own health, she can use condoms or other contraceptive methods after a caesarean section, and sterilization can be considered one year later.

Caesarean section surgery has already consumed a lot of energy in a woman's body. If a ligation surgery is performed at this time, the damage caused is inevitable. Although it is medically believed that sterilization itself is not harmful to the body, it can easily cause greater damage when performed together with a caesarean section. I hope women can understand this issue.
