One group consisted of 17 women undergoing laparotomy by Pomeroy technique; the second group consisted of 11 women undergoing laparoscopy by Fallope rings; and the third group consisted of 15 women undergoing colpotomy by fimbriectomy. The differences before and after sterilization in cycle length were non-significant in all groups (p>0.05). After sterilization, menstrual duration and number of pads were significantly increased in the laparotomy (p<0.001) and laparoscopy (p<0.01) groups but non-significantly in the colpotomy group (p>0.05). Comparison of these parameters between the groups did not show any significant differences (p>0.05). After sterilization, increases in the severity of dysmenorrhea and non-cyclic pelvic pain were non-significant in all groups (p>0.05). We concluded that there were no significant differences in menstrual disorders after sterilization among these three different techniques.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess[No Keyword]Article114309315WOS:A1995TV479000052-s2.0-0029619397865931610.1007/BF01983290N/AN/A
