What is tubal ligation

Tubal ligation is a type of sterilization surgery, and many female friends achieve the purpose of sterilization through this surgery. So for those who are about to undergo or want to learn about tubal ligation, it is very necessary to understand what tubal ligation is. So, the following article will introduce to you what tubal ligation is.

Tubal ligation is a permanent contraceptive method. The commonly used methods in China include incision of the mesotubation and partial resection of the fallopian tube (including proximal and end embedding methods), double-fold fallopian tube ligation, fallopian tube compression ligation and fallopian tube fimbria resection. Tubal ligation surgical routes include abdominal, anterior and posterior vaginal fornix and groin. Currently, abdominal surgery is the main method recommended. With the improvement of surgical techniques and the updating of surgical instruments, the abdominal incision has been significantly reduced, the operation time has been significantly shortened, and the irritation of the instruments has also been reduced. Tubal ligation is performed for female sterilization and results in the blocking of the egg's migration to the uterine cavity. This procedure is only done for women who have decided they no longer want to have children and is not intended for temporary contraception.

The commonly used methods in China include incision of the mesotubation and partial excision of the fallopian tube (including proximal and end embedding methods), double-fold fallopian tube ligation, fallopian tube compression ligation and fallopian tube fimbria excision. The surgical routes of tubal ligation include transabdominal, anterior and posterior vaginal fornix and groin.

The best time for women of childbearing age to undergo tubal ligation surgery is in the first half of the menstrual cycle, especially 3 to 7 days after the menstruation ends. This is when the damage to the body is minimal and recovery is fastest. The body can recover through its own regulation in a short period of time, and the possibility of pregnancy can be eliminated.

In the second half of the menstrual cycle, under the action of progesterone, the pelvic organs become congested and edematous. The blood vessels are filled and the blood vessel walls are fragile, and the blood flow from the body to the ovaries increases 5 to 6 times compared to other times in the menstrual cycle, while the body's coagulation function is reduced at this time. Therefore, performing tubal ligation in the second half of the menstrual cycle will increase the chance of bruising or accidental ligation of a blood vessel.

Tubal ligation only cuts off the channel for the egg and sperm to meet. It is a minor operation and may cause slight pain, wound infection and other problems, but it will not damage or affect the body's physiological functions, health and sex life, nor will it hurt any "vitality".

Tubal ligation is an effective and permanent contraceptive method, which mainly achieves the purpose of contraception by ligating the fallopian tubes. It is an effective contraceptive method chosen by women who do not want to have more children after giving birth. Therefore, those who want short-term contraception are not suitable for this type of surgery. The above is an introduction to what tubal ligation is.
