Family planning is something that many couples begin to consider when they are both ready to have children. However, what happens after you have them? If you already have the number of children you wanted and you don’t want to have more, a contraceptive method is a great option for you and your partner. Here we explain what bilateral tubal obstruction is and how the procedure is carried out.

What is bilateral tubal obstruction?

This is an ideal permanent contraceptive method for women who no longer wish to have any more pregnancies. In this, the fallopian tubes are cut and tied to prevent the egg and sperm from joining together when having sex.

OTB is one of the most effective contraceptive methods, 99% effective.

This does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases or infections, so it is advisable to use other methods that are to avoid the risk.

How is the procedure carried out?

A small surgical incision is made, which can be made through the belly button. It can also be done at the desired time or directly after childbirth.

When the fallopian tubes are located, they are ligated and a fragment of approximately two to three centimeters each is cut.

Recovery from this operation may vary, we recommend consulting your doctor for more detailed information.

At Advanced Fertility Center Cancun we have a special price for OTB for laparoscopy.

From $ 2,487 USD to $ 2,114 USD during August 2021.
