title: [Catamnestic investigations on sterilized women].
abstract: According to a thorough follow-up investigation of 2,002 sterilized women with an unusually high response of 94.3%, sterilization is by far the most reliable method of contraception (failure rate about 1 per thousand), largely free from danger (mortality less than 1 per thousand), and associated with less morbidity (somatic 1.4%, psychosomatic 2.4%, psychic 1.4%, sexual 2.8%, familial 0.8% and multiple complications 0.7%) whose improvements of 30 to 70% contrast in the areas mentioned. Psychic and familial stabilizing impulses arise form a sexuality freed from anixiety, so that the earlier medical reserve is unjustified.
