Can Tubal Ligation Cause Adenomyosis?

Tubal ligation or tubectomy (also known as having one's "tubes tied" (ligation)) is a surgical procedure for sterilization in which a woman's fallopian tubes are clamped and blocked, or severed and sealed, either method of which prevents eggs from reaching the uterus for implantation.

Adenomyosis is defined as the presence of endometrial glands and supporting tissues in the muscle of the uterus where it normally would not occur. When that gland tissue undergoes growth during the menstrual cycle and then subsequent sloughing, the old tissue and blood cannot get out of the muscle and flow out of the cervix as part of normal menses. Women with adenomyosis can experience serious pain.

There is some evidence that women who have had tubal ligation may be at higher risk of suffering adenomyosis. Normal retrograde flow of endometrial cells in those women destined to develop endometriosis is blocked due to the ligation of the faloppian tubes. This would increase the intrauterine pressure and force some of those cells down into the muscle of the uterus and therefore development of adenomyosis.

There is some support for the concept that women who have adenomyosis have more frequently had a tubal ligation. Thus, tubal ligation has relationship with adenomyosis. People would think that surgery would cure the pain in 100% of women with adenomyosis. In fact, surgery has its own risk. Surgery is not only one choice for women with adenomyosis.
