Tubectomy

Tubectomy treatment Hospital in Yeshwanthpur

Tubectomy, commonly known as tubal sterilization, is a long-term technique of female contraception. It is a surgical procedure that prevents the egg produced by the ovary from reaching the uterus by blocking the fallopian tubes.

Tubectomy, also known as tubal sterilization or having your tubes tied, is a type of permanent birth control. Tubal ligation permanently prevents pregnancy by cutting, tying, or blocking the fallopian tubes. Book an appointment to know more about the tubectomy procedure.

Tubectomy prevents an egg from passing from the ovaries to the fallopian tubes and also prevents sperm from passing from the ovaries to the egg. The menstrual cycle is unaffected by the procedure.

Tubectomy can be performed at any time, including after childbirth or as part of another abdominal surgery, such as a C-section. Most tubal ligation procedures are irreversible. If the reversal is attempted, it necessitates major surgery and is not always successful.

Why is the procedure performed?

Tubectomy is one of the most common surgical sterilisation procedures for women. It permanently prevents pregnancy, eliminating the need for birth control. It does not, however, protect against sexually transmitted infections. Tubectomy may also reduce your chances of developing ovarian cancer, particularly if the fallopian tubes are removed.

However, tubectomy is not recommended for everyone. Consult your doctor or health care provider to ensure you fully understand the procedure's risks and benefits. Your doctor may also discuss other options with you, such as long-acting reversible contraception such as an intrauterine device (IUD) or a birth control device implanted in your arm.

Procedure

Around the belly button, a few small incisions are made. A laparoscope, a telescopic device, is inserted through one of the cuts. A small camera at the tip of the laparoscope transmits images to a screen, allowing the surgeon to see the internal organs. The surgeon inserts special instruments to seal the tubes by cutting parts of them or blocking them with clips, guided by the images and working through the tiny cuts.

Various approaches of the procedure are:

  • Bipolar coagulation involves the use of an electric current to sear parts of the fallopian tubes.

  • Electric current is used to sear the tubes during monopolar coagulation. To further harm them, a radiating current is used.

  • Tubal clipping is the procedure where the fallopian tubes are permanently clipped or tied together.

  •  A silastic band known as tubal ring is used to secure the tube.

  • A section of the fallopian tube is disconnected from the ovary during the Fimbriectomy procedure. This creates a gap, limiting the tube's ability to receive eggs and transfer them to the uterus.

After procedure care

It is critical to follow the surgeon's post-surgery care instructions. Some tips for taking care of yourself include:

  • For a week, avoid strenuous exercise.

  • Work could be resumed in a few days.

  • Avoid engaging in sexual activities for a week after the tubectomy.

Pain medication can help with pain management. In the event of severe pain, however, consult a doctor. Consult a doctor if you have a high fever, bleeding from a cut, fainting spells, or other symptoms. Visit Manipal and have the best tubectomy treatment in Yeshwanthpur, Bangalore.
