There's no need to have a baby again, so who will do the ligation? Revealing the pros and cons of male and female ligation
Twenty or thirty years ago, in order to achieve family planning, the state almost mandatory required women who had already married and had children to undergo ligation. Although this contraceptive method has indeed had a good effect, it has harmed the fundamental essence of women. Therefore, female ligation is no longer advocated, and instead male ligation is being promoted. Who is the better choice for male and female ligation?
1. Risk coefficient during surgery
Female ligation requires an incision in the lower abdomen until it reaches the fallopian tubes. Then use a uterine ring to bind the fallopian tubes and cut off the egg transport pipeline, thereby achieving contraceptive effects. Male ligation, on the other hand, involves making a small incision in the genital area and directly cutting off the vas deferens. The former has a larger wound and slower healing. Moreover, the uterine ring left in the body is also a foreign object, which can easily lead to infection or other complications.
2. Different degrees of damage to organs
Women have a deeper incision during ligation, which can easily cause damage to the bladder or intestines. And male ligation may damage blood vessels, nerves, or testes. However, because the scalpel is not deep, the chance of such injury is relatively small.
3. Postoperative sequelae
Although the materials of palace rings vary, even better materials have a lifespan of only twenty years. There are also many people whose uterine rings may accidentally fall off, and this foreign body may cause cysts or inflammation when it dissociates into the uterus and other parts. Many women experience a significant increase in menstrual flow, dysmenorrhea, or irregular menstruation after undergoing ligation surgery; If the incision of a male is not properly treated after ligation, it may lead to infection induced redness and swelling. But as long as the genitalia can be properly cared for after surgery, these postoperative problems can still be avoided.
4. Impact on sexual function
Many people experience a period of sexual frigidity after undergoing ligation surgery, which may not necessarily be caused by the surgery. Usually, it is due to a lack of correct understanding of ligation that causes psychological dysfunction. However, the probability of women experiencing this psychological disorder is relatively low, and after the body adapts to the uterine ring, this mentality will gradually disappear. Men who undergo ligation usually feel that they are no longer able after ligation, leading to erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.
5. Ligation effect
Once the uterine ring relaxes or falls off after female ligation, it will lose its contraceptive effect; After the male vas deferens are cut off, it is difficult to naturally connect at the fracture. Even if the connection is continued, it is difficult to clear, so the contraceptive effect of male ligation is much better than that of female ligation, and it is not suitable for recanalization.
