Tubal Ligation
It is a kind of permanent birth control where your tubes are tied or tubal sterilization is done. In tubal ligation, the fallopian tubes are tied, blocked, or cut to permanently prevent pregnancy. It does not affect your period cycles but prevents an egg from traveling from the ovaries to the fallopian tubes. Tubal ligation can be done at times, including post-childbirth or with another abdominal surgery, such as a C-section. Mostly this procedure cannot be reversed and if reversed requires major surgery and isn't always effective.
The Procedure
An interval tubal ligation when done as an outpatient procedure, an incision is made through your belly button, or a needle is inserted. It is done to inflate your abdomen with gas. After this, a laparoscope is inserted into the abdomen.
When you opt for the second case your doctor will make a small incision to insert special instruments via the abdominal wall. These instruments are used by the doctor to seal the fallopian tubes by destroying parts of the tubes or making use of clips or rings to block them.
If you have a tubal ligation post vaginal childbirth, the doctor is likely to make a small incision under your belly button. It provides easy access to the uterus and fallopian tubes. When tubal ligation is done during a C-section, the health care provider will use the incision that is generally used to deliver the baby.
There is a possibility of some symptoms like Abdominal pain or cramping. Fatigue, Dizziness, Gassiness or bloating, and Shoulder pain after the procedure is over.
Results
Tubal ligation is an effective and safe way of permanent birth control. Fewer than 1 out of 100 women are likely to get pregnant in the first year after the procedure. It generally fails when done at a younger age. Conceiving after a tubal ligation creates the risk of having an ectopic pregnancy. In such a pregnancy the fertilized egg implants outside the uterus in a fallopian tube. It calls for immediate medical treatment.
Conclusion
If you discover that you're pregnant at any time after a tubal ligation, immediately contact your health care provider.
