To know if your tubes have been tied or
not, you can request a
hystero-salpingo-graphy (HSG) or a
laparoscopy with a hysteroscopy. HSG is a
contrast X-ray procedure. Laparoscopy and
hysteroscopy are endoscopic procedures.
Laparoscopy can also discover if
sterilization (tied tubes) has occurred,
or not.
