Abstract:
:Changes in serum ovarian hormone and gonadotrophine levels and ovarian artery blood flow rate by Doppler ultrasonography following laparoscopic tubal sterilization were evaluated. Forty-seven cases of laparoscopic tubal sterilization by electrocoagulation were included in the study. Forty-two women who used nonhormonal contraceptive methods were randomized as a control group. Serum concentrations of estradiol, FSH, LH, progesterone and bilateral ovarian artery pulsatility indexes were measured at baseline and at three, six and 12 months. In the study group, the mean value of midluteal progesterone was significantly decreased three months postoperatively 3. and bilateral ovarian artery pulsatility indexes were increased three and six months postoperatively, compared to their preoperative values. However, there was no statistical difference between bilateral ovarian PI values calculated preoperatively and at 12 months. Laparoscopic tubal ligation by electrocoagulation may temporarily cause reduced bilateral ovarian artery flow and corpus luteum dysfunction proven by low mid-luteal progesterone levels.
