Are There Specific Procedures More Prone to Regret?
Certain gynecological procedures are more commonly associated with regret. For example, sterilization procedures, like tubal ligation or vasectomy, can lead to regret, especially if the patient’s life circumstances change. Elective cosmetic surgeries, such as vaginal rejuvenation, may also result in regret if the patient is dissatisfied with the outcome or experiences complications. It is critical for healthcare providers to thoroughly discuss potential outcomes and ensure patients have realistic expectations.
