Bilateral Salpingectomy (BS) — the removal of both fallopian tubes — is increasingly recommended for women who have completed their families and are undergoing pelvic surgery or seeking permanent contraception.

Research suggests that many high-grade serous ovarian cancers, the most common and aggressive type of ovarian cancer, may actually begin in the fallopian tubes. Removing the tubes can significantly reduce the risk of developing ovarian cancer while preserving the ovaries and their hormonal function.

Talk to your healthcare provider about whether bilateral salpingectomy may be an option for you.
