The impact of sterilization surgery on women

Contraceptive surgery is a surgery to prevent pregnancy. Contraception can be performed in many ways, but surgery is the most effective one. However, these contraceptive methods have certain side effects and effects. Contraceptive surgery also has certain effects, but many people do not know the specific effects, or have not understood them. So what are the effects of contraceptive surgery on women?

Some statistics indicate that the chances of needing a hysterectomy due to gynecological problems after a sterilization surgery are higher than for the general population.

Vascular ligation may cause damage to the bladder or intestines.

Bleeding. Bleeding is mostly caused by incomplete hemostasis during surgery, failure to detect it in time, or failure to detect abnormal coagulation function of the patient before surgery.

Infect. According to the location, it can be divided into two categories: abdominal wall incision infection and pelvic infection. In the early stages of abdominal wall incision infection, local redness, swelling, heat and pain appear, which may be accompanied by fever. There is purulent secretion from the wound, and a mass with unclear boundaries can be felt on the abdominal wall.

Pelvic pain. Pelvic infection after surgery, incomplete treatment leading to chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, or pre-operative pelvic inflammatory disease.

Psychosomatic disease (neurosis). Patients who have great concerns about surgery before surgery, have fear or doubt, or have existing neurosis often experience abnormal physical and mental symptoms after surgery, but no organic lesions are found in the corresponding organs.

Adverse reactions during surgery: The most common adverse reactions during surgery include nausea, vomiting, pain, and low back pain and swelling. Due to insufficient analgesia and the patient's fear and tension, local pain is caused during the abdominal insertion; pain caused by manipulation or instrument reduction in the retroverted uterus; soreness and pain in the waist when lifting the fallopian tube with a hook or an oval clamp; nausea and vomiting caused by inadvertent stimulation of the ovaries; upper abdominal pain or nausea and vomiting caused by traction and stimulation of the greater omentum and mesentery; a small number of patients' non-cooperation or poor cooperation, or difficulty in finding and lifting the tube due to excessive obesity, resulting in repeated searches that increase the patient's psychological burden, causing or aggravating local pain and other discomfort.

Induration under the abdominal incision: rough surgical operation, incomplete hemostasis, and excessive bleeding; too much abdominal wall tissue is sutured, especially the tendon sheath is overlapping or uneven. Thin individuals with less subcutaneous fat are more likely to have nodules exposed; the surgeon's technical level and experience; the assistant's cooperation and proficiency.
