Aim: Our aim was to evaluate possible adverse effects of tubal ligation on ovarian reserve and ovarian stromal vascular support.
Methods: Ninety-one women who underwent tubal ligation, using a modified Pomeroy technique, were studied. The main outcome measurements were serum follicle stimulating hormone, luteinising hormone and oestradiol levels, ovarian volume, number of antral follicles and Doppler study of ovarian stromal artery on the third day of the menstrual cycle immediately before, 1 month and 12 months after the surgical intervention.
Results: Statistically significant elevation of follicle stimulating hormone levels was observed at 1 and 12 months after tubal ligation (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Doppler flow studies of the ovarian stromal arteries showed that there were no significant differences before and after tubal ligation.

Objective: Contraception use and follow-up visit data from before and in two periods during the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic were compared to investigate change in behavior.
Material And Methods: A retrospective study of women aged 18-49 years from New York City during three one-year time periods: pre-COVID-19 pandemic [(COV-PRE); n=4,261], early COVID-19 pandemic when the COVID-19 vaccine was not available [(COV-VACNO); n=3,365], and later COVID-19 pandemic when the COVID-19 vaccine was available [(COV-VACAV); n=4,170].
Results: There were higher odds of implant use [odds ratio (OR): 1.
Article Synopsis
- Serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) lesions are precursors to high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas, which have the highest mortality rates among gynecologic cancers, particularly affecting women with hereditary risk factors.
- A 38-year-old woman of Nepalese descent was found to have a STIC lesion during an opportunistic salpingectomy performed for sterilization, highlighting the potential risks even in patients considered average risk for ovarian cancer.
- While the SEE-FIM protocol, which is more sensitive for detecting STIC lesions, is typically not applied to average risk patients, implementing it could reduce missed diagnoses, although the costs and effort involved remain uncertain, especially among underrepresented populations.
