Changes in ovarian function after tubal sterilization

Abstract
Changes in ovarian function were evaluated in 43 women, before and after tubal ligation. Midluteal endocrine profiles and endometrial biopsies were investigated before and at 3, 6 and 12 months after the operations. During postoperative follow-up there was significant increase in luteal phase deficiency and midluteal FSH, LH and E2 levels (pp2 au milieu de la phase lutéale (pp2 en la mitad de la fase lútea (pp<0,001) y se observó falta de ovulación en 13 (30,2%) de los 43 casos. Nuestros resultados hacen pensar que la esterilización de las trompas presenta un riesgo mayor para la función ovárica, en particular, carencia en la fase lútea y anovulación.
