About Laparoscopic Tubectomy

Laparoscopic Tubectomy is a minimally invasive, permanent female sterilization procedure performed by an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist. It involves making small incisions in the abdomen to insert a laparoscope (a thin tube with a camera) and surgical instruments. The surgeon then locates, seals, and cuts or clips the fallopian tubes to prevent eggs from traveling from the ovaries to the uterus, thereby blocking fertilization. This method is highly effective for birth control, offers a quicker recovery, less post-operative pain, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgery. It is a safe and definitive choice for women who have completed their family planning.
