Female patients who undergo tubal ligation generally do not experience complications. However, inadequate postoperative care—particularly if it leads to genital infection—may result in complications such as bleeding, adhesions, or even chronic pelvic pain. After tubal ligation, female patients must pay close attention to dietary adjustments and avoid excessively spicy foods, which may irritate the body and trigger inflammation.
