Patient's question:
I already have three children, and I'm one of those people with a high fertility rate. Every time I have sex with my husband, I get pregnant. I'd like to know if there are any methods that can prevent a woman from being able to get pregnant for life?Doctor's answer:
Methods to prevent a woman from becoming pregnant for life include undergoing tubal ligation surgery at a regular hospital, or having an intrauterine device (IUD) inserted 3 to 7 days after her menstrual period ends. Permanent oral contraceptives can also achieve the effect of permanent infertility. However, no contraceptive method is entirely absolute. If the uterus is removed, it will also result in permanent infertility, but this can have certain impacts on a woman's body.
