After giving birth to a baby, women who do not want to have another child usually choose to undergo sterilization surgery, which is a more thorough method of contraception. Cesarean section refers to the surgical method of cutting open the uterus to deliver the fetus. Can sterilization surgery be performed during cesarean section?
Whether sterilization can be performed during cesarean section mainly depends on the method of cesarean section and the specific circumstances of the surgery. If the cesarean section is performed inside the abdominal cavity, that is, in the lower segment of the uterus, it is performed inside the pelvic cavity and the fallopian tubes can be ligated. If an extraperitoneal cesarean section is performed, it is done outside the abdominal cavity and cannot be ligated due to the inability to touch the fallopian tubes.
If the surgery is difficult, there is a lot of bleeding, and there is also placental implantation, it is not recommended to perform ligation in this situation. Because sterilization can easily cause local bleeding, prolong surgery time, and is not conducive to women's physical recovery after surgery. After surgery, it is important to rest, have a reasonable diet, and avoid certain foods.
If the cesarean section surgery is successful and the mother's mental state is relatively good, then the surgery can be performed simultaneously, which can avoid a second surgery and avoid causing secondary harm to the body. But this requires consultation with family members and their consent before surgery can be performed, while also taking into account the doctor's advice in a reasonable manner.
