Answer 2

Tubal ligation is done differently now. They use clamps instead of " cauterizing" or  cutting then burning the ends of the falopian tubes. Here's what Wikipedia has to say:

Tubal ligation (informally known as getting one's "tubes tied") is a permanent form of female sterilization, in which the fallopian tubes are severed and sealed or "pinched shut", in order to prevent fertilization. Hormone production, libido, and the menstrual cycle can be affected by a tubal ligation.[1]
