There are several techniques for performing tubal sterilization. Common methods include:
Laparoscopy: A minimally invasive surgery where small incisions are made in the abdomen, and a laparoscope (a small camera) is used to guide instruments to block or seal the tubes. Mini-laparotomy: Typically performed after childbirth, this involves a small incision in the lower abdomen to access and seal the fallopian tubes. Hysteroscopy: A non-surgical method where a device is inserted through the cervix into the uterus to place small implants that cause scarring and block the tubes.
