Can women get sterilized?

When we hear the word sterilization, we usually think of it as an operation performed on men, which achieves effective contraception by inhibiting the combination between sperm and egg cells. So is it true that only men can undergo such an operation? Can women undergo sterilization? Can this be an effective contraceptive? What special precautions should women take after the operation?

Although women can undergo sterilization surgery, modern women rarely use sterilization surgery for contraception because sterilization surgery will cause great harm to women's bodies and have a great impact on their future lives. Because women who have undergone ligation surgery will show menstrual abnormalities and the amount of menstrual bleeding will increase significantly. In addition, during the ligation process, some blood vessels in the ovaries will be damaged to varying degrees, affecting the normal ovulation and endocrine functions of the ovaries, and causing women's normal functions to be affected to a certain extent.
