title: Psychosexual attitudes in the female following sterilization.
abstract: This study represents a three year follow-up, summarizing the psychosexual attitudes of 120 patients who were sterilized with tubal occlusion by one of three methods: culdoscopy, laparoscopy or postpartum laparotomy. The results indicate that most patients had a favorable impression of the procedure with little significant change in their sexual habits. Eight per cent of patients expressed regret at not being able to have more children. The frequency of coitus remained largely unchanged.
