Can an abortion and tubal ligation be done at the same time?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I'm going to have an abortion and a miscarriage. Can you do both at the same time?

Doctor's answer:

It is not recommended to have an abortion and tubal ligation done at the same time, as this increases the risk of postoperative infections and the recurrence of conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease. If you do not plan to have children in the future, I suggest considering breastfeeding after an abortion. If you must have a tubal ligation, it is advisable to wait until you have fully recovered from the abortion before undergoing the procedure.
