Comparing bleeding after two types of tubal sterilization
Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding After Tubal Sterilization and Salpingectomy
This study is testing whether one method of tubal sterilization during cesarean delivery causes less bleeding than another method in women aged 20-40 who have finished having children.

What this trial studies
This study investigates the frequency and amount of dysfunctional uterine bleeding following two different methods of tubal sterilization: Pomeroy's method during cesarean section and complete salpingectomy. The goal is to determine if one technique results in less bleeding than the other. Participants will be women aged 20-40 who have completed their families and are undergoing cesarean delivery. The study aims to provide insights into post-surgical outcomes related to uterine bleeding.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are women aged 20-40 who have completed their families and are scheduled for a cesarean delivery.
Not a fit: Patients who have undergone tubal sterilization by methods other than Pomeroy's or those wishing to retain fertility may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could help identify the safer surgical option for women undergoing tubal sterilization, potentially reducing post-operative bleeding.
How similar studies have performed: There is limited information on similar studies, making this approach relatively novel in the context of comparing these specific surgical techniques.
