Female sterilization is one of the modern contraceptive methods widely preferred around the globe followed by contraceptive pills, IUDs, and condoms. It is a permanent method of contraception and has helped in monitoring of population growth especially in developing countries such as China and India. Although any women can choose to undergo sterilization, it is majorly preferred by women aged above 35 years who do not want to conceive in the future. With the rise in aging population and increased awareness about family planning, the market for female sterilization devices is expected to increase. In addition, an increase in the popularity of minimally invasive and less invasive techniques will slowly remove the traditional or surgical method of sterilization, which will act as a driver for the female sterilization devices market. Although female sterilization is considered to be one of the safest forms of contraception, side-effects such as ectopic pregnancies, internal bleeding, pelvic pain, dislocation of the device, and lack of trained and experienced practitioners can act as a barrier in the growth of the female sterilization devices market.
