Abstract

In recent decades, many women have opted to end their reproductive capabilities with a tubal ligation. Past research suggests that there are differences between women who do and do not have a tubal ligation, but little research has analyzed possible negative relationships with those women who have had a tubal ligation. This research uses bivariate results and logistic regression models to profile women with tubal ligations and examines the relationship between having a tubal ligation and two measures that indicate sexual dissatisfaction, seeing a private medical doctor about sex problems and having stress interfere with sexual behaviors. Using National Health and Social Life Survey data (NHSLS 1992), we update prior findings and expand prior research on negative side effects. Specifically, we find that the measures, seeing a private medical doctor about sex problems and having stress interfere with sexual behaviors, both covary with women having had a tubal ligation.
