Laparoscopic tubectomy is a very popular method of sterilisation. Yes - it can be recommended at the age of 38. Although it has inherent risks associated with any laparoscopic procedure, it is overall a safe method provided it is done by a gynaecologist experienced in performing laparoscopic procedures.
