Is there a procedure were they clamp a womens tubes insted of tying or cuting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: 'tying tubes' is largely slang: if ligated during a cesarean delivery the tubes ar usually tied and cut. Tubal ligation done most other times are done with clips across the tubes, or small rings that squeeze the tubes shut.
